Pleasant abortion stories? Just curious girls.

Hey sami

Just wanted to say I walked in to a abortion clinic got checked out and was told to come back the next day to have the abortion done.

Guess what?...I never went back!!!!

Sept. 2 of 08 I going to be taking my 5 yr old son to school..

At the time I was 16 and here I'am at 21 with 3 kids,Graduated,married and regreting even thinking and stepping into that clinic

Yep,its hard to raise a child at a young age but later ur gonna regret it if you have an abortion

Ok. First of all, it is a little hard. But don't doubt yourself and you will make a great parent. As far as the dad goes, I'm in the same situation. He wanted me to have an abortion because HE does not want more kids. Sounds like a convenience issue for him. I'm not going to kill my baby for him. So if you don't want to have the baby, then more power to you. I am not a supporter for abortion unless it was rape or incest. If you're 6 weeks already, know that it has a heartbeat. Which means that it is a life that you would be taking. Have the baby and give it up for adoption. I'm a single parent, and it is not as hard as people say. Especially with only one child. You can still work, go to school or whatever you have to do. There is childcare and resources out there. Now as far as him... like I told my baby's dad. Don't be there if you don't want to. He should have thought about not having more kids before he agreed to have unprotected sex. He or no one else have to live with that guilt, only you. And in the long run, regardless of who agreed it was right, you're the only one that has to answer to GOD if you believe in him. Go with your heart though babe. I had decided to get an abortion too. I don't believe in them, but felt I had to because everybody else thought I should. God knows me and my heart. He made it difficult for me to get the money to have it done, and when I did get it and went down there... I cried really really hard before I went in. Got in there and when they did the ultrasound to see how far along I was, they couldn't see it. So they couldn't do the abortion. I took that as a sign and decided to keep the baby. Best of luck to you mama, whatever you do. I hope this gets to you before your appt so you can have some kind of hope. Know that if you do decide to keep it, a way will be made for you. Trust this.

Here's my story... I hope it helps :-)

I'm 21 and going to graduate in May from a great university. I found out I was pregnant about 4 weeks ago, and chose to have an abortion 2 weeks ago. I was 6 weeks along.
So I went to the clinic, saw the sonagram of the fetus. It looked like a tadpole. I decided to go through with the abortion.
The abortion itself involved a small needle through my arm to sedate me. I passed out, so I don't remember the actual procedure, but when I woke up, the tadpole was gone and I could go back to life as usual. The only pain I had was in my arm from the needle and some occassional tummy cramps.
Now I feel a little guilty, but not because of my decision to abort. I have not told my mom or anyone else who knows me. I feel guilty for keeping secrets from them, but I'm not clinically depressed or anything.
Maybe with more emotional support, like from friends and family, this would be easier for me. But I stand by my decision. I'll have a baby when I'm good and ready, and not by accident.

hey, I was doing research on abortion for a paper I had to write and I came across these posts which made me want to share my story. I got an abortion last year, when I was seventeen and I havent regretted my decision even once. I did not even consider having the baby. I learned that I was pregnant, something I had been suspecting for seven days and afterwards I just called my doctor and asked him how I would get an abortion. I dont want to be disrespectful to anyones feelings but thinking that, the baby inside the womb in those first couple of weeks is just like any other human being is just stupid. Just because your egg decides to fertilize does not mean that you have to continue the process. The fetus is not alive, they are cells that are multiplying. I'm not saying that its not alive on the 7th month but at the begining there is nothing wrong with abortion. IT's a really quick process, general anesthesia makes it so much easy it does not hurt at all, you go to sleep you wake up and its over. when the circumstances are not right its not right to have that baby its not fair to anyone so dont feel bad about getting abortions you are not murdering anyone. you are actually making sure that another human is not created to suffer - because if you are a teenager and not ready or prepared to have a baby...the baby will suffer.

I know this post is very late, but to anyone out there who is coming across this page by chance and is concerned with abortion...
DO NOT listen to anyone except YOURSELF. The pro-life protesters will not be there at 2AM to help soothe your baby's colic, change diapers or provide a positive male role model to your child. The pro-choice ones do not know the love that may be in your heart for the baby, or how wonderful of a mother you would end up being.
Nobody lives your life except you----- When you are 80 trillion years old and on your deathbed, what do you want to be able to say about your life, your achievements, experiences?
I have had an abortion and I have given birth. There is no such thing as "Post Abortion Syndrome", and emotionally I was fine within a few weeks. I was awake during the procedure, and it was painless physically. Afterwards I felt like I was on my period for 10 days. Giving birth was beautiful, and now my life revolves around this new person for the rest of my life, and I am so very much in love.

Don't let religion guide you, only your instincts. Religion is in all races, all over the world. A religious practice/belief in another country may sound strange here, and vice versa. Instincts are universal- follow them.

I just feel the need to share my experience, since other people's stories had me literally SCARED SICK before my abortion. And by scared sick, I mean SO damn scared that I ended up putting it off till 13 WEEKS because I didn't want to have to deal with the "intense pain" everyone had told me about. 8-|

I had no choice but to have the procedure awake, and was tense as hell beforehand, for obvious reasons. I received NO pain killers besides a few shots of lidocaine to numb my cervix. Despite the tenseness, and the fact that I WAS so far along I was already showing, the pain never reached a level higher than my period cramps. I've always had pretty painful periods, but even for those who don't, I really doubt if the pain would be more than you can handle.

I'm sure everyone's tolerance and experience is different, and NO, I certainly wouldn't want to have to do this again (it's time consuming, emotionally draining, and it's SURGERY for godsake!), but I could beat to death all the idiots who told me the pain would be worse than anything I've ever experienced in my life. I swear at this point, nearly everyone I spoke to or read info from on the net is secretly working for pro-life organizations!

hey there, i had an abortion 3 weeks ago, i will tell u now there is nothing plesant about it, i still can't sleep at night thinkin about what i did.
if u think that the pill will let u down then why not go onto something more protective like the implant or depo injection they will never let u down.

hello ladies,
i just want to tell all you ladies who have got an abortion proceedures done before, that i do not judge you, but however feel very sorry for you.

i PRAY for all the women out there who felt like they needed to kill their baby in order to live a happy lifestyle.
but how bout... oh i don't know... DON'T HAVE SEX! these kind of mistakes wouldn't happen... it's the perfect birth control i promise. 8]

we shouldn't be playing God here, let Him take care of you, i promise He will!
God Bless.

I had one and it was so much less traumatizing than I ever thought it would be. I cannot even afford to support myself, and I do not have the emotional strength to give a child up for adoption so pregnancy was not an option. I had it done very early in the pregnancy, and it didnt hurt at all, during the procedure or after. I've had worse period cramps than any of the pain I felt during the procedure. It is just an uncomfortable feeling. I cried a few times afterwards and many times before because I felt weird about the idea of what I had to do. I do not regret it. I feel emotionally fine.

I used contraception and it failed. I am now going to be much more careful because I dont ever want to go through this again. But sometimes it is the only option. I also feel like telling someone to just not have sex is also not a very feasible option. It is important to be very careful though. Use condoms AND birth control.

I had an abortion several years ago and it was probably one of the best decisions I've ever made. It was no more painful than going to the dentist, and that guilt that all the pro-life websites warn you about is absolutely not a given, most certainly not in my experience. If you do decide to go through with it, it is not a big deal and I am so grateful I had the opportunity available to me.

Wow, I can't believe how many people had an abortion that wasn't painful. Mine was extremely painful. I was not under anesthesia or iv sedation and the nurse practioner, nurse, and counselor told me that it would feel like heavy cramping. It was so much worse than that. My cervix was numbed (two needle sticks) and that hurt a lot. The actual abortion was terrible. It felt like a sharp pain with metal scraping my uterus walls. It's indescribable how painful that is. If I had to do it again I would DEFINITELY be sedated in some way.

i got an abortion this afternoon. it was a painful decision to make, and i'm sure many people would not agree with it... but it was my choice. it took a lot for me to walk in today. i cried, a lot. i was told by friends and family who have had abortions before that it isn't physically painful at all. you just hear what's going on.

for those of you going in, just so you know, i am strongly pro choice. but it's true when they say all people take it differently.

i am okay with what i have done after the procedure. however, the procedure itself for me was the most painful thing i have ever experienced. i was the last patient of the day, and the doctors and nurses were rushing to finish up the day. the doctor started the surgical procedure before the morphine in the IV really hit. I FELT EVERYTHING. i'm not sure if there are others out there who have been in this situation before. i am okay with my choice, but the procedure itself was traumatizing to me. i think it would have been okay given the doctors and nurses were more patient and spent more time.

it really made me mad to see the girls who were there before me being offered lollipops and crackers and water while in recovery. they were checked on every ten to fifteen minutes and were allowed to leave after the bleeding slowed.

they didn't offer me a thing.
i just sat there, in tears, in extreme pain.
they checked the bleeding once. then when they were done cleaning the room i was in, they told me to wait out front for my ride... who they called right when i was ready to go. not thirty minutes prior to me being ready to be picked up like the originally said.

maybe its just the clinic i went to.
i don't know.
but it was horrible.

i wish i would have gone to another place.
i dont want this to change anyones mind about abortion. like i said, i am okay with my decision. i terminated my unwanted pregnancy and i feel so much better about it. my career is just starting, and my boyfriend and i are barely supporting ourselves at twenty-one years old. babies are beautiful, and in a sense i am pro life. but i understand that it always depends on the situation you are in.

god bless, everyone.
feel free to email me if you want to talk.
my ears are open, as is my heart.

I had a medication abortion, which i'm told is far less painful than a surgical abortion. I started bleeding right away, just like a period. In response to the original question, there is nothing "pleasant" about an abortion. I got one because I was only nineteen and even though my boyfriend wanted the baby, i knew i couldn't take care of it the way i wanted to. Every day before i ended it, i apologized to my baby and prayed for guidance. It was hard to sleep at night feeling its heartbeat. I know i made the right choice for myself, but it was the hardest, most UNPLEASANT thing i've ever had to do. I hope u stay on the pill and never have to abort your child.

just thought i would post my viewing on here, to let every1 know the experiences i went through, and hopefully make it easier for other people who read this, as i looked on here for views and opinions when i was deciding whether to go ahead with the abortion or not.

..at first i was unsure of what to do.as soon as i did my pregnancy test, and seen positive, i was over the moon. but something in the back of my mind didn't feel right. i was unsure whether i could deal with it, however pushed that to the back of my mind and got on with things. i told my family and boyfriend who where all very supportive.but however as the week went on i found myself growing more & more uneasy about it. so i booked an appointment with my doctor & asked how i go about getting an abortion..she worked out my period map and seen that i was only 5 weeks pregnant,at a guess. so she then booked me in an appointment for the following week in the hospital where i would go for a scan to see exactly how far gone i was. there i had a meeting with a nurse who talked things over with me, and made sure it was definitely what i wanted. and the scan proved correct of me being, now 6 weeks. so i went along the following Monday to have a medical abortion.

many people had told me not to go through with this form of abortion because of the pain and emotional stress of being awake during the process and bleeding servery. however i knew this was what i needed to do. so as scared as i was, i went ahead with it. although i cried my whole way to the hospital that morning. when i got there and met the staff and got talked through the process, i felt a whole lot better. at 10am i was then given to tablets inserted vaginally. and they said my pain would start shortly. however a hour had gone past, and i felt nothing....then 2 hours later, the pain started. however it wasn't the pain every1 had described. just a mild period pain to begin with, with outbursts of stronger pains. however it was bearable..the bleeding wasn't severe, was only moderate to my usual period,and once the feoutus was passed, the pain stopped all together. the only discomfort i had, was having to use the toilet in a bedpan so the doctors and nurses where able to see what i was passing, and how often. but within two hours of passing the feotus i was sent home. and was told to rest.

i then bled for 8 days after and a month later, received my next period. i now believe abortion was the best decision i could have made. even though difficult at the beginning. i was able to see it was the best thing for me to do,as now i am in university and will settle with children when i am ready, mentally and physically. the hospital have now sent me pregnancy tests which i have done & sent back that came back negative, to enable my procedure was affective.

i posted this for young girls, like myself to read, to know every story is different, and not every1 has bad experiences of abortion. however i do think i was lucky, and didn't have too much pain. i think this was because i wasn't far along in the pregnancy when the procedure was done.

good luck xCode:
