Abortion

Hi, my name is lexi, I am 17, I recently
had an abortion and I regret it. I
debated about it for a long time, and when
I finally decided, I was pretty far along.
I know that so many of you are against
abortion, but I just wanted you all to
hear from a person’s point of view who
have had one. I had a surgical abortion,
I was in the hospital for 2 days and am
still recovering. If you have any
questions please feel free to ask!

I was 20 weeks, I didn't chose adoption
because the father refused to sign
anything and my parents were ashamed of me
being pregnant to begin with, they had me
hide it.

I don't know how anyone could go through
with an abortion at all let alone at 20
weeks...That's halfway through the
pregnancy. You obviously regret what
you've done, but I still don't understand
why because no one can force you to have
one. I don't know this is a touchy topic

It makes me sad...Incredibly sad. There
are so many people who can't have children
or who have lost children and you have
this beautiful miracle who is alive and
swimming around and...Ugh I don't even
want to think about it

Listen I know I did something terrible and
I regret it, but my daughter is now with
god and she is safe there with him! I
know that you all probably hate me, but I
didn’t know what to do.

I don't hate you not at all. And I don't
mean to judge you but in light of a recent
miscarriage I had this topic is incredibly
touchy. Your daughter could have been
safe in your arms as well. They don't
even do abortions here at 20 weeks it's
illegal. You have up until 12 weeks then
after that too bad you have to go through
the pregnancy.

I don't really think this is a good place
for you to talk about this! Please go to
the "abortion" forum. I don't mean to be
rude but there are emotional pregnant
women here and I don't appreciate you
coming here.

Well all I can say is you dont have us to
deal with. I hope your ok with what you
did. Be safe and try not to have any more
kids. People try all the time and never
get one and here you took that for
granted.

You don’t understand, I don’t know how to
deal with this at all. I need help. When
I told my parents my dad told me that they
would kick me out and I would never be
welcome again. My boyfriend told me that
I was a spoiled little rich girl and I
would be lost without him and my father’s
money. And he was right, how could I
raise this child alone, without anything?
I bet that all of you have someone that
supports you, I had no one. I didn’t know
what to do, and I am so sorry, I just need
help.

Well you should never feel like no one
would want you! You should have toughed
it out or done it earlier! There is
always something to help you get by. Your
parents and that guy are horrible people.
You should have never cared about money or
him. At least your baby is somewhere safe
and happy now. You dont have to worry
about that. Just try to get by and
forgive yourself. I hope you never get
with that guy ever again

I kinda have to agree with angie. These
girls here don't need stress like that and
trust me the word abortion causes stress!
Espically for those here who have recently
lost children..... It's sick is what it
is.

Fair enough choose another forum but
different people have bene bought up
different ways so you cant reall judge her
for what she has done. What she has done
may have felt right at the time so I
personally dont think tellin someone t
basically go away and not helping them
doesnt solve matters it can just make them
worse.
Love rachel xxx

Rach I agree with you but I also agree
with ang. Sometimes there's a place for
special topics like this. Ehealth has a
special place for people who have had or
are thinking of abortion. She is relcome
to stay here. I was just voicing my
opinion. I think it's sick. No matter
how you look at it. My brother's
ex-girlfriend had gotten pregnant for him.
At 2 months she called him.... "josh,
i've had an abortion. I didn't want the
baby". What did my brother do? Hung up
and none of us has ever spoken to her
again! I'm very anti-abortion......
For any reason except medical purposes and
possibly in a rape situation, and even
then.....

I"m not trying to be mean and i'm
definently not judging her but I just
don't think this is the place to talk
about it. I am 23 weeks pregnant and I
personaly don't want to hear about it.
All i'm asking is to go to a different
forum or talk over pm's. I'm sure the
abortion forum can give you much better
support.

Me 2 thats the way I am. Only certain
things that need to have happened to me or
any of my my famil accept abortion but I
do feel that some people are being a bit
to hard on her.
