Hey MizzB
I’m a 27-year-old married woman with a huge burden.
When I was a university student, my lecturer forced himself on me.
Later that day my boyfriend came to visit and we had sex. I discovered that I was pregnant a few weeks later.
I disclosed my situation to the doctor and he advised me to pick the man I want to be the father and I chose my boyfriend.
We later got married, but we are now struggling to have more kids. How do I continue to live with this secret?

Dear Lady
Secrets in a marriage are a load that can be poisonous.
It would be best to know the paternity of your child by getting a DNA test done as this may have a negative impact on your ability to conceive.
You should talk to your partner about your past so that he can support you. A healthy relationship takes constant work and effort to maintain.
