The answer

Abortion is forbidden in the third week unless there is a confirmed harm to the mother's life or the fetus's death. What is mentioned in the question is not a legitimate reason for abortion. One must fear Allah, supplicate, seek well-being, and follow up with doctors for a safe completion of the pregnancy. It is permissible to regulate pregnancy after childbirth for breastfeeding and the benefit of the child and mother.
