Heather’s Story

It’s April 28th, 6 p.m., and I just got home from having a surgical abortion with only a shot to numb my cervix. No twilight. I was 7 weeks pregnant and sick beyond belief for over a month. I am almost 31 years old, a single parent of one child allready, and struggling financially to [...]

Heather’s Story

One Monday morning, the year 1993, I had an abortion. It happened to be the year anniversary of Roe vs. Wade. I had a boyfriend of two years at the time, but we were both young and certainly not ready for a family. I belonged to Kaiser and they sent me to a clinic, for [...]

Heather’s Story

I had an abortion in the beginning of October in 2002. I’m definitely not sorry.

I was very confused about the terrible sickness and hurting I was going through. I couldn’t eat and got sick at the smell of food, which is very bad for a waitress. Then, I was late and figured out why [...]

Heather’s Story

I grew up in the panhandle of Florida, an area not-so-fondly referred to as Lower Alabama. In school, we were taught to work hard, be patriotic Americans and love Jesus. We were not taught about teenage pregnancy. We were not told about birth control or how easy it was to get pregnant if we didn’t [...]

Heather’s Story

First of all, I feel like I don’t have to justify my reasons for getting an abortion, but I am offering them anyway. I knew at the time that abortion was the only choice I could live with; I was perfectly fine with that choice and I have never had any regrets. From time to [...]

Well, I’m not sorry. And why should I be? I’m lucky, I worked for years in medical laboratories, where I saw many POCs (products of conception) and you cannot convince me they are anything more than potential babies. What? Those little red jellyfish? Some of them much older than mine was … It was like [...]

Harriet’s Story

I have been pregnant 5 times.3 pregnancies were terminated on the first trimester. This was long ago and I have never regretted my actions. Subsequent events in my life served only to confirm the correctness of my earlier decisions. I was late 20′s to early 30′s and married when these procedures were done. I had [...]

Hannah’s Story

My name is Hannah and I was 19 when I made the tough decision to have a termination in July 2009. I feel that other stories on this page has helped me to come to terms with everything that has happened and I just hope that I may be able to do the same for [...]

Hannah’s Story

I was sixteen when I got with my ex-boyfriend. When we first had sex I was young naïve and drunk. At a party at his house with his friends there I felt pressurised into having sex with him. Being so young I never realised any of this until a while after, I was quite stupid. [...]

Hannah’s Story

I live in Britain and I had an abortion three years ago. I had been using contraception but took a risk I shouldn’t have once; and the resulting pregnancy would have destroyed my life. That’s something pro-lifers never seem to recognise, the fact that women have a right to their lives as well as their [...]
