I don't know if anyone else has the same feelings but i had an abortion about a month ago i was nine weeks pregnant and knew it was a very difficult decision to make as I have a two 1/2 year old son and knew i have brought him up really well and he is always so happy and i am such a proud mother that i had strong feelings that i could cope with a second child. The reasons that i went through with the abortion is that i am only 22, my partner 24 and at uni and we are not yet in a financial position that we could bring another baby into this world and as my partner is at uni and living away i would find it difficult on my own. I was feeling like running from the clinic and when i was taken into the theater i so nearly got up off the bed and phoned my mum and partner to come and collect me! the thing is i am a very maternal person and a few times during each day i find myself feeling that i wish i was still pregnant and the termination didn't work, that i would be having my second baby in november. not only do i have those emotional feelings but i am still bleeding very lightly every day and have abdominal pain usually on my left side, sometimes quite painful- i sometimes feel that i should have some physical pain because i shouldn't of gone through with the termination and feel guilt. Is there anyone in a similar position?? xx

I'm 19 and pregnancy (I'd be 20 when I have it). Have gone through 2 years of university and am taking the year off to go take a different course. I'm not sure if i should have an abortion or not, my boyfriend wants me to but I really don't know if I could go through it with and if I did I think I would feel horrible after. Any advice you can give me?

Im 18, and had an abortion when i was 17. Me nd my boyfriend were together at the time, and every one convinced me that an abortion was the best way forward. I went ahead with the abortion, but ive never forgiven myself for doing it. Its my biggest regret. The strain of the guilt cause me and my boyfriend to split up, which made things a whole lot worse. Just make sure your doing it because its what YOU want, and not what other people want you to do. My and my boyfrend are now back together. But we both wish we'd thought things through more carefully.

Yes, it is a big decision and needs to be looked at carefully and planned from all aspects. It is a decision that once it is made and followed through, nothing can be changed! Regret is common and a lot of women do well with counseling to some degree after the fact. Counseling beforehand is as crucial, I believe. It is a decision that can't be modified! The best thing to do is to talk to someone who has gone through the experience and actually had an abortion, as opposed to friends who are just looking at it as an inconvenience but never gone through the experience. It is like getting advice on drug addiction recovery from a current crack addict - nothing good will be derived from that kind of advice!

Yes I regret mine :-( I have 10yr old boy 3 yr old boy an 1yr boy! So I felt I couldn't cope as don't want other boys to suffer as being to busy an I also get really I'll the whole way thru pregnancy basically bed ridden. So I had surgical abortion. First time I went there I walked out! But convinced myself it was right thing to do. Now I keep hoping I'm still pregnant an it don't work but that's impossible! As had period. Lately if been feeling sick an emotional but prob wishful thinking. Your not the only one. Its horrible but they say time is a healer! . let's hope that's true!

I chose to have a abortion and have not went back for my checkup! I pray so hard that it failed and my baby will be ok but I know its a slim chance! I ask others to please think things through before a abortion! I would much rather have my lil angel then live with my choice because my life isn't going as planned! I can honestly say I will live with serious issues due to my choice!
