I had an abortion about 6 months ago and I am not sorry. I had originally wanted to post my thoughts right after I had the abortion but I wanted to take some time because then I was overwhelmed with everything that was going on. I was less than 5 weeks pregnant when I had my abortion and looking back at it I don't have even the slightest regret. I remember back then when I was trying to make a decision about the baby I was bombarded with pro-life articles online and made to believe that life would never be the same again. IT'S NOT TRUE. Life will go back to being normal. I don't suffer from depression I don't start crying when I see babies and I haven't lost my self esteem. I am 22 right now and having a baby was the last thing on my mind and it's the smartest decision I have ever made. My boyfriend was incredibly supportive and contrary to the popular belief we didn't break up after the abortion.
If I were to do it again I would do the same thing. I am not sorry!
