I guess my story starts off like most do. I met a boy, fell in love, got pregnant, and had an abortion. That is the overly simplified version of events.

I cannot say that I am like most of the women on here. I deeply regret my abortion. In the prior 10 years, I would've told people differently.

I was newly married and terrified when I became pregnant. I was unsure of my relationship and had come from a dysfunctional family that I was afraid to recreate.

Tuve a mi hija y nueve meses después quedé embarazada nuevamente. Eso fue un gran impacto. No pensaba en tener al bebé pero ese fue mi primer aborto y tenía mucho miedo.

I was on the patch, and my boyfriend and I used condoms, but I got pregnant anyway. Because of my history of very irregular periods, we did not know that I was pregnant until I was 17 weeks along.

I was 21, married, in the military, full time student, part time retail employee, and completely broke. My husband was going away on his first deployment.
