Getting an an abortion sucks.
Getting an an abortion sucks. When I found out I wasn’t overwhelmed with joy instead it was fear, I felt so lost and I wanted to run away but I couldn’t. I knew I had a very hard decision to make and I wanted to push it off forever. I made an appointment and it wasn’t until I was in their office that reality had hit me. I cried in the waiting room and almost left when the Dr was talking to me. It’s definitely one of the hardest choices I had to make but I did it for baby and myself. I got into a car accident December 2024 shattered my pelvis and ruptured my spleen along with other things but those 2 injuries were the main reason I chose not to have a baby right now, my body physically can’t handle it. I’m also in a terrible position to have a baby with no job no house my boyfriend lives 20 hours away I have no support, I wouldn’t be able to give my baby everything it would need right now. At first I felt really guilty and selfish, I still do, I almost didn’t take the 2nd pills because I felt so terrible. However I weighed out my options and chose not to go back. It’s been 7 hours since I took the pills and it’s not as bad as I expected. My bleeding and cramps started an hour after taking them. The bleeding is heavy and the cramps come and go but isn’t unbearable. I also feel nauseous sometimes like if I were to stand up I’d pass out but I’ve been eating I showered, cleaned a little, fed my pet frog, drove my friend home my life’s still normal just with a little drowsiness and guilt. I’m not sure yet how I’ll feel in the future and even though it still sucks I know I’m making the best choice right now. If your having doubts or feel horrible just know your doing it for a reason and having an abortion doesn’t make you a horrible person.
