2007 Ireland (ඉපදුනේ Ireland)

grieving comfortable peaceful relieved confident angry ashamed sure guilty afraid sad

Two different experiences make the list of emotions confusing - My first abortion was one i had to travel for and lie for and could not share with people at home so the emotions were primarily negative yet i was sure it was the right decision. My second abortion took place at home with the help of womenonweb and was a far more positive experience. Thank you.

with medicines in a clinic or hospital with surgery

I found the foreign clinic quite frightening. The medical abortion at home was by far more comfortable

my personal reasons for not wanting a child

My first abortion was in 1997 the second ten years later. I am a single mother and have not the resources for children when pregnancies occurred.

ඔබේ ගබ්සාව නීති විරෝධී වීම ඔබේ හැඟීම්වලට බලපෑවාද?

Not this time as there were no lies to tell and could take place in the comfort of my home. I found a previous abortion for which i had to travel far more traumatic.

ඔබේ ගබ්සාවට අනෙක් අය ප්‍රතිචාර දැක්වූයේ කෙසේද?

I had support of friends

I have 1 child

no religion
