I need to abort my baby at 22 weeks and Im really stressed out about this whole situation. My husband lied to me about his past, he was already married and has a family, and I just found out. I feel I cant handle this alone. Hes been pushing me to abort the baby and his first wife is also putting pressure on me, telling me to leave him and my in-laws.

Can you help me figure out what I should do?
