We had only just started to see each other and felt it wasn’t the right time to bring a child into the world when we didn’t have stable jobs or somewhere to live. The second abortion was when I was 26 and we both were working and owned our own house, unfortunately I wanted that baby but my husband wasn’t sure and I guess I wanted him to be happy to I went along with the abortion but there was a long wait and I was nearly 15 weeks by the time of my abortion. Now I have three wonderful children and I often wonder what life would have been like if I had kept my first child, I have massive regrets about both my abortions as I know now that everything would have been perfectly fine if I had kept my babies. Unfortunately, I haven’t had counseling and I think I need it as it’s starting to eat away at me inside just wondering about my babies that I got rid of so flippantly.
