umm I think that you should not be so mean towrds women who have had more than 1 abortion. I cannot use hormones.... Paragard iud expelled after 1 week, and mirena expelled and displaced after 1.5 years. I use fertility awareness and the today sponge. I have become pregnant 3 times on birth control, I am okay with this. I have been ovulating since I was 13, when I started my period. I have been sexually active since I was 17, to my soon to be exhusband....We divorced because eventually he began to mistreat me, and I don't put up with abuse. So in the 6 years that I have been sexually active, I have only been pregnant 4 times, 3 abortions. I think thats okay. I am personally happy with that. I took precautions.



look I have a lot of tolerance on alot of things.. But there is always a limit... My concern is repeated procedures can cause medical problems, and since you have had more than 1 you know what I am reffering too..

4 pregnancy in 6 yrs is not "working so well" if you ask me. I fyou want to keep aborting that is your choice but I imo 3 abortions in 6 yrs is nasty.

Early surgical abortion does not cause scar tissue ect.. Only the old style d&c scraping caused scarring. Second an abortion is 10 times safer than continuing pregnany, so this is safer than actually having a child. Too bad you think it's nasty, I have a college degree, and make great money and am happy in my life. Thats what counts. Your happiness is not my concern, your happiness is your concern.

i believe that as responsible women we should terminate an unwanted pregnancy asap. I do not think that it is the best decision to wait and have an elective abortion at 20 weeks, but some women do not have access to clinics in a short period of time. Some women have to save up the money, some women have to leave an abusive relationship, so I cannot take away their right to abort just because I think it should be done sooner.


oh well. They should have thought of that before putting a bun in the oven. These woman are not our responsibilities. If she cannot afford to kill her baby, chances are, she is not paying rent, buying the right foods, etc...You catch what i'm saying right? Maybe she should take the money she does have and buy birth control. I don't know about you, but last I checked, that was cheaper than an abortion.


hey, if I needed an abortion I couldn't pay for it right away... That doesn't mean i'm a bad person, it means i'm in college and 500 bucks doesn't just fall of trees. And pregnancy does occur on birth control, though thankfully very rarely if the pills are taken correctly.

I catch what you're saying. You're saying any woman who gets pregnant and wants an abortion is a dirty slob with no self respect, who just pimps herself out to any man who wants to have sex. That's what you're saying. And it's wrong. I take birth control. I attend college, I live in a house with housemates, and I have only ever had sex with one guy, my bf.

The woman may not have any money of her own because her abusive husband takes it all away. She may be a teenager with no income who needs an abortion. You didn't think about that though, did you?


And have I not mentioned that I feel women's money should be spent on birth control, not abortions? Yes, I did. But if she's already pregnant, all the birth control in the world ain't gonna do her no good.


And if these women aren't our responsibilities, then why is the zef inside their uterus any of yours?


what I am saying is this:

woman that get abortions have no respect for themselves or life in general. Woman that get abortions are irresponsible and selfish. I laugh every time .Sandy claims that abortion is responsible. That is so twisted. Killing your child is not responsible.

If a woman has a husband taking all her money she should not be with the loser in the first place. So no excuses there. The teenager has no business getting pregnant if she cannot afford a baby, or an abortion, however you look at it. What makes you think I didn't "think of that"? I think of everything. There are no excuses for teens that become pregnant due to lack of protection, as with any woman. Any other woman's baby inside of them is not my responsiblity but it is our responsiblity to live life well and good and to promote goodness and abortion is only contributing to the destruction of our society. It sends the message that killing your child is ok. That taking the easy way out is ok even if it hurts an innocent soul.

woah, I can't believe my eyes!
The travel "would be so difficult" but killing your child not once, but 3 times isn't? What is wrong with your brain??

i don't see how your man is better than her's... Or at least i'm not seeing how you're better at choosing them than she is, since you've had two (three!?!) as well. Saying you're better than us because you've had more medical problems than us doesn't make you better, it makes you different. I personally am allergic to nothing and have never broken a bone and never been pregnant. It doesn't make me better than you. Also, I am an army brat, so I know all about being accross the .U.S.A and in other countries, and I know what it's like to have a loved one fighting overseas.

i love the anti women posts. It is .B.O.T.H parties responsibility to use protection. And along your of reasoning... If a man doesn't wear a condom and gets a .S.T.D, should he be refused medical treatment?


this view is not anti-woman at all. Woman should not expect men to protect themselves. Of course they should but it's not their job to make sure we do not become pregnant. It's our responsibility. We need to depend on ourselves as woman to protect ourselves. No woman should rely on a man for that. What does your s.T.D example have to do with abortion, or what relevance does it have? None, zilch, nadda.

sorry dear but abortion is not safer than pregnancy. Amazing how pro-choice will insist this until their blue in the face. There are risks with everything in life but don't try and tell me sucking out a baby peice by peice is safer than delivering a child. Spare me.

It's nice that you have those nice things above but what you don't have is the 3 children you killed.

This has dissoved into mean-hearted nonsense! Why are you all trying to prove why you're better than each other? Stop calling each other cold-hearted, souless, or whatever. That's not debating.




Grow up. It makes me sad and sick to see these posts saying that abortion is evil and mean and that all women, with no exception, every single one of them is a heartless .E.D.I.T.. My mother wasn't and isn't! My boyfriend's mother wasn't and isn't! A teen who was raped by her father isn't! Any woman at all who was raped and aborts is [b]not a heartless .E.D.I.T.



I absolutely cannot believe how callous and misunderstanding you all are. And how judgemental you are. Isn't that in the bible? "do not judge"?

Again eiri, I don't feel you should throw the bible in our faces when you have "dogged" it numerous times. Make up your mind ok? You either believe in the bible or you don't.

I don't view my comments as heartless at all. Ironic how you call it heartless but you don't call the act of abortion "heartless". Wow. Where are your priorities? I'm sorry if it bothers you that I speak the truth. Carifairy did kill 3 of her children and that is what her life lacks. Whether it bothers her or not, which obviously it doesn't, it is the truth.

I agree, woman that are raped and abort are not heartless. Simply torn and unable to make a good decision. I have talked about this before. But the selfish woman who just can't seem to "fit" that child she made into her life is a heartless health forum. Sorry.

Your experiences above do not make you better than us. Get over that belief quick.

actually i've said many times that I don't believe in the christian god. But the bible, as a book, has many very good pieces of advice. Plus i'm deist, which means I take ideas from all religions to mold my own beliefs. And one thing I feel strongly about is not judging others.

does my life lack because I don't have any children? I've never tried to have any. I'm quite happy living out my early twenties childess, thanks very much.

so the "right" desicion - the descision the woman can't make because she's so distraught - would be to bring an inbred child of she and her father into the world? How sick is that!?

i don't like to judge others either. But that only applies when the "others" are not harming others with whatever it is that their doing.

So abortion is not killing a baby? That .I.S truth, not opinion. And killing is wrong. That is fact, not opinion, although you may argue differently. If your good, you do not think killing is ok.

No, your life does not lack because you have no children, because you never (from what I know) have been pregnant. She has. Her life lacked something she started. It was obviously meant to be for her to become pregnant and she took it upon herself 3 f'ing times to kill 3 of her very own children. Sick.

So are you saying you think it is sick for a woman to decide to give birth to a baby she conceived out of rape by her .Father? It is not the babies fault. The baby still deserves life. And actually I was speaking of a woman aborting her baby made out of incest....Not keeping the baby. I have more understanding of this situation, although I do not condone it.

if you'd paid attention, I have also said several times that it is inded killing something, a zygote, and embryo, a fetus. None of which I consider a baby.

wouldn't you agree that incest and inbreeding is sick?

i just find the idea of bringing life out of such screwed up circumstances very disturbing. And i'd certainly hope that the father never sees that child. I pray that child never finds out, because i'd be highly disturbed if that was me.

Okay the name calling thing has gone too far. Sunshine I do not believe that I am better than you. I am simply saying that I am just as happy in my childfree life as you are in your life decision to have children. Each person in this world knows what is best for them, including you knowing what is best for you. We know what is best for us. What is best for me, and what I like, is a good college education and solid career that I enjoy wholeheartedly. I would not enjoy having children, that is just my personal feelings on the matter.

oh wow? *shock* sandy is playing the holier-than-thou part again. What a laugh...What do you get out of all of the bragging? Do you feel bad about yourself and need reinforcement via the internet? Please sandy give it a rest. I don't think anyone cares about your wonderful, eventful (or however you plan to brag about it today) life, at least I know I don't. No one is better than anyone for any reason period. Get over yourself already.

Abortion is about not continuing on with the pregnancy, continuing on with the pregnancy, whether you keep it or adopt it or not having children is all about choice. It is not about name calling or anything else, just my opinion.
