I was 21 years old. I actually had just stopped using Birth Control due to the unknown side effects. My boyfriend and I were together for about 4 months at this time. One day I had terrible cramps, laying in the fetal position from the pain. It was abnormal, I knew it was off. I took a test and I was pregnant. Also, I did get my period.

Anyways. I went to Planned Parenthood to figure out how to get rid of it. We both knew we did not want a child. We were both young, yes 21 is young. He was also abusive. PP was very amazing, accommodating with no judgement.

Accommodating, thoughtful, kind.

Wie haben andere Menschen auf Ihre Abtreibung reagiert?

Very supportive. My mother and sister both had abortions before me. We are all thankful for the right.

It isn't and shouldn't be as taboo as it is made out to be.

Don’t confuse ‘what ifs’ with regret.
