I am now 29 married with a baby, but I had two abortions in college and I only regret that I wasn’t more careful.

Both times it was my on-off-again boyfriend (we would date, break up, get back together over and over). The first time he drove me to the clinic and paid for half. The second time I was so angry with his attitude that I took his money and went to the clinic alone. It was an emotional struggle when I was younger but I now believe it was best for all (I was in no place to raise a baby; I could hardly take care of myself). I went and found an alternative to oral contraceptive after the second and stayed on it until my husband and I were ready for a baby.
