Nicole,

I know it might be awkward, but have you considered adoption? True, most people - when they're married and already have a child - don't go the adoption route. But, your situation is unique. If your ex is against abortion, perhaps he would support you in carrying your baby to term and then placing your baby with a loving adoptive family? That way, you would be giving your child life, but you and your ex would be able to pick up where you left off without the complication of your ex thinking of the baby's father when he sees the child. It may be that he's a big enough man that he would be able to rise above that and truly love this baby as his own. That would be wonderful. But, if he feels that would be too difficult, adoption might be a very good, healthy, and loving option... Just a thought.
