I had my abortion over a year ago now on April 12th 2013, I was 21 years old and 8 weeks pregnant. I had been dealing with morning sickness for weeks just thinking I was sick or had an allergy to something I was eating, being pregnant wasn't even a possibility in my mind since I was on the pill.
I was 18, in my freshman year of college and having sex with my high school sweetheart. In late September I thought I had the flu. I never really thought about the possibility of being pregnant until one of my girlfriends saw me vomiting at school one day.
I was 19 and sophomore in college when I got pregnant. I had only been with my boyfriend for a few months, and I couldn't see him as a father.
I've had 2 abortions, one when I was 19 and one when I was 23. I was with a man a lot older than me, and by the time Iwent to Planned Parenthood to get the pill I was already pregnant.
I was single, 22 and dealing with some serious feelings of self-doubt and depression. I had gone out one night with a girlfriend, drinking, which seemed to do a good job of masking any real feelings at that time in my life.
