Ik heb nooit getwijfeld aan mijn keuze. Wel was de ingreep heftig, en onderschatte ik de emotionele gevolgen erna, waar ik weinig tot geen begeleiding of hulp bij kreeg.

Vervelend, pijnlijk en alsof er een indringer was. Achteraf begrijp ik pas dat een abortus met pillen mogelijk was want ik was pas 4 weken zwanger. Dat had ik in mijn eigen huis met mijn toenmalige vriend erbij. Het contact met de arts en zijn personeel was niet prettig - alsof ik gefaald had omdat ik daar lag.

Did the illegality of your abortion affect your feelings?

Omdat mijn abortus legaal was voelde het alsof dit net zo onderdeel was van de zorg als een bezoek aan de tandarts.
