It is disturbing that a woman would want to get pregnant directly after an abortion, and I do answer many private PM's and emails from women on these boards..
Many women do not want to air everything out...
After I have given all the information via PM or email, I cannot force anyone to take my advice, I can only educate. |

Posted: 03/15/07 - 16:25 Post subject: Wanting to get pregnant immediately after abortion |
|
|
| I'm assuming the original poster was urged by her doctor to have a d&c due to a problem with her pregnancy...most of you probably know a miscarriage can even be termed "Spontaneous Abortion"...your body aborts the unhealthy fetus. There seem to be differing opinions on whether or not it's a good idea to get pregnant immediately after a m/c. I've not really seen any statistics on what percent of women m/c when they get pregnant after a previous miscarriage (without waiting for at least 1 full "cycle"). It would seem to make sense to let the uterus heal...but I have heard "you're most fertile after a m/c or labor"...can't really find any "founded" information to support that either. |

| It is not that you are MORE fertile, it is that you never know when you may ovulate after the 'abortion', so it is best to be careful at all times. |

it does matter why. you do have the choice to keep a baby or get rid of it. but don't turn around less than a month later and decide you want another one when you were just blessed with one and got rid of it.
if it was for medical reasons, or being a rape victim, try to have another one.
but if it was because you two couldn't handle it at the time i doubt a month later things will be better for you to handle another one. don't do it out of guilt or anything, do it because you want a family and is ready to take on all the responsibilities of being a mother |

| The op was asking for advice on conception not morality. Save it for the picket lines. It is sad that there are people trolling around on these sites waiting to bash someone for not respecting human life and feeling justified to call people hos. If you are that emotionally tied to the issue refrain from answering objective questions it does not help those truly seeking advice. |

When a woman is on BC, her period can come ANY DAY IN the placebo week.
KEEP taking your pills as usual.
It is normal for BC to make a womans period late sometimes, usually it is because of the hormones. |

| Hi, I had an abortion in march this year. I was really pressured from my boyfriend and as i was frightened to lose him and confused and panicking ar what i really wanted, i went thru with it. Ever since that day i have cried and regretted it. I go to see a councillor every week and im getting worse by the day. I just want my baby back so much, i am even consideirng getting pregnant again, and stop using birth control and dont tell my boyfriend. I really am serious about this, my maternal instinct is SO strong and i feel i cant survive without my baby. I really do feel ready to have a child. Please reply back with any suggestions - would be greatly appreciated. xxx |

Hi Guest,
I read your post, and my heart aches for you. Are things still going pretty bad with your counselor? Has your counselor suggested anything in the realm of Post Abortion Syndrome? There some that say PAS does not exist and others that do. I would suggest researching BOTH Pro-Life and Pro-Choice websites (reputable sites) and read up on the information as best you can, to see what is going on.
If you are going to a counselor and you are not recieving any "help"... research other counselors who might specialize in issues regarding abortion. They are out there. But with anything, be educated, ok? It sounds like you are pretty young. In my humble opinion, I dont think getting pregnant and having another baby is going to help you with getting past these issues, and again in my opinion, I dont think that it will be very helpful to your relationship either.
Was your boyfriend pressuring you to abort? Was he being "standoffish" of treating you unkindly before you aborted? How long have you been experiencing these things? When are your symptoms stronger? If you feel comfortable with answering these questions, please write back. Any help I can offer further, please dont hesitate to ask.
