Abbie

I had an abortion and don't regret it.

2014 United States

disappointed irresponsible resolved relieved

I'm extremely relieved and ready to move on with my life. I have no regret for my decision and know it was best for me and my family. I'm thankful I live in a country where abortion is legal. Definitely hard to get (distance) but doable.

with medicines

I'm very relieved I was able to do the medical abortion with medicine. It was easier than I thought.

financial issues my education family size

I have 2 young boys already and am totally overwhelmed by the responsibility of them both. I am a 26 year old woman with a supportive husband but there is no way we could emotionally or physically support another child without expense to my other children and our marriage.

How did other people react to your abortion?

I only told 2 people; my husband and mother. My husband was more impartial and said he would support my decision either way. My mother was disappointed in my decision but ultimately supported me. No one else knows are needs to know.
