I (27F) was sexually abused from the age of 9 until 18 by my older (adult at the time) cousin (36M). His sister (who I am quite close to) has just had a baby and I am unsure whether or not to tell her the truth to protect her baby.

I have had counseling and largely sorted out myself in relation to the abuse I was put through. I don't feel the need to tell my/our (my abuser and myselfs) family en mass but I would hate if my abuser hurt his niece in the future and I could have stopped it.

Only my sister knows what happened to me and I was going to wait until the shared grandparents of myself and my abuser were dead to tell others (my parents etc.) to minimise hurting those I care for but the new baby has arrived and I am in a quandry.

I am worried I will do more hurt than good.
