Are you still out there? I know this feeling. I felt like I was under spiritual attack. It is entirely bizarre and I am headspun over my abortion (one month ago). I am 38, and was praying for fertility, and my prayer was answered! It's horrible. I had an incredible amount of pressure from my mother believe it or not that I should not have listened to; I should have listened to God. When you mention that you have had thoughts of suicide, it just made me think about a deliverance pastor that I know that believes that abortion invites a spirit of death, so that may be something you need to deal with, to tell that spirit to leave you in Jesus' name. I know I sound like a nut bag here, but actually I am a highly educated, typically stable person who had this exceptionally weird and tragic experience. I pray that we all heal and are blessed with children in the future if that is what we want.
I did it out of guilt. Had a baby boy. Yes, I felt terrible after my abortion; got health insurance and had another baby. Does that make me bad. Back when I had the abortion they made it so easy it was like getting a flu shot. No counseling; no exploring of options. They rushed you in and out. I did it then felt terrible....
I'm 17 years old and it's sad to say but 2 years ago I was pregnant. My boyfriend (at that time) and I were dating for 2 years. I thought that I would keep the baby because I made the decesion to have sex. But werw we told our parents, they basically made the decesion for us. I got the abortion 2 years ago. if any women see this, you should really think about this. I'm still having difficulties getting over it, especially since I'm still in high school there is many pregnant girls or girls who already had a baby. I feel like I'm ready to have a baby but I feel like I don't deserve one.
hi m 6 week pragnent doctoer advice me to do abortion for medical reason .i abort my baby today i want my baby back. Is it possible to get pragnent immediately after abortion
Do you mind me asking what the medical reason was? I'm so sorry you had to go through that. Yes, I think it is possible to get pregnant pretty quickly after an abortion, although it will probably take a couple of months for your body and hormones to get back to normal. I know it's painful. I'm so sorry. I did it for no good reason at all, it's a long story. And I am hoping for the same thing. God bless you!
Wow how selfish....you ddnt want that one now you want another?
I don't think that you should judge. There are many horrible things that lead women to make such an evil decision. Repentance and hoping for another chance, and wishing you could take it back, are not selfish things, they are human things. Positive things. I would have been judgmental and close-minded probably also if I hadn't gone through what I went through. It's hard to understand if you haven't experienced it, and I pray you never do. It doesn't excuse it, but try not to judge. Have compassion.
I write this for someone who told me selfish if u have ectopic pragnancy what u do
Thank you! Agreed. Some of us are looking for answers to questions about our physical bodies, not opinions about morality. Please take your comments to a fundamentalist board, maybe they'd actually be useful to someone there.
I too was 40 had thought an abortion was the right thing to do.. I thought of my family I already had and the child as he/she became older and could we cope with a raging teenager when we were in our 50s. Also my health during pregnancy as I have had 2 very difficult births with my other children as well as the potential risks to the child. we decided to have an abortion taking all these factors into serious consideration. I have to admit at the time I felt a weight had been lifted off my shoulders but 24/48 hours later regretted everything I had done I mean I always said I would never want another child but now a few months on a long to have that child and I am so broody it is unreal. No one prepares you for these feelings afterwards.
Did you end up getting pregnant again? I had an abortion just over two months ago. I am 40 and was pregnant on accident and terrified. I thought I was doing something logical, but I am devastated. Not functioning. I couldn't see through the hormones and fatigue what a blessing I had. Now I want to try to get pregnant on purpose. I will probably be 41 when the baby is born- if I am blessed again at all. I know I might be reacting, but I can not bear the pain any more. I just wish I could turn back time.
After you had your baby, did you feel better? Do you look at that child as a child of an abortion mistake?
