I had an abortion when I was 12 weeks and 4 days. The ladies at the abortion clinic told me that it isn't true about not being able to get pregnant again after having an abortion. But I'm worried that because I was further along, that may cause problems or did something internally or even was harder on my cervix than getting an abortion earlier in pregnancy. I'm not trying to get pregnant right now I'm just worried that it caused problems because I was a little over 12 weeks. I'm worried. ↓
Since no one has replied. I finally will since I've read this post over and over. May I ask you why you got an abortion before I say anything else. I don't want to assume or jump to conclusions. ↑

I have been told that if you do have several abortions it can weaken your cervix. ↑

When you have an abortion they do the same thing they would do if you miscarried and had to have a DNC. I have not heard of it causing any problems unless it was done improperly. If you did not have any complications then you should have no more trouble then anyone else when you decide to become pregnant. ↑

If an abortion is like a d&c, which I think it is...like Babycrazy says - I would not think it would cause any future problems conceiving. I had 2 d&c's due to miscarriages...I was told to wait 6 months in order for my uterus to be at the optimum to support a pregnancy. I did have scar tissue from those procedures which caused me to not dilate after my water broke. The OB nurse PHYSICALLY broke the tissue away so I could dilate - was not fun, but better than a c-section! ↑

Jeez! Thats a bit damn harsh newbaby2009! You don't know anything about the woman! Or the reasons behind her choice! ↑
Name: newbaby2009 | Date: Jun 19th, 2008 5:52 PM
I dont care about her "reasons" There is always adoption if your not ready or dont want it. Which you shouldnt be dumb enough to get pregnant if thats the case. ↑

This post is old. But newbaby you are a self righteous woman. Have you never made a mistake or "sinned" in your life!?!?!?!? Would you be the first to cast the first stone!!?!?! Tell me how good and innocent you are!
NewBaby - my personal views are my personal views about abortion. She may have been raped or abused or just for her abortion was an ok choice. This is a free country and abortion is legal. I understand your views on abortion, but this forum is for people to feel safe to talk about issues related to pregnancy, childbirth etc. Not feel attached. It is not for you to attack them and say such aweful things. If you believe abortion is wrong, as I do, please save your energy trying to change the laws and work toward what you believe should be the law. Don't come onto this site and wish mean hurtful things. What if there is a girl here who is considering abortion, and after reading this she feels totally scared to admit it for fear of hearing your wrath. You can do more good by being positive and not responding to posts such as this that cause you to be so upset. My friend had an abortion or D&C because her baby had no kidney's and would die at birth within an hour and be terrible deformed that is if she lived to birth. I had another friend who was raped and she was too tormented to even consider having her rapists baby. And my husbands sister in law had an abortion when she was 15. She went on to have many healthy children. If any of these women asked my option on what they should do, I would have given it in a constructive, supportive, manner. without being mean and judgmental. But they did not, so I said nothing. I prayed for them and asked God to guide them, but they have a free will to make their own choices in live. What right do you have to judge anyone for their decisions. Again, personally I don't believe in abortion, but I don't believe in other controversial things that many other people do. PLEASE keep your hurtful mean comments to yourself! This is not the place. ↑

Thou shalt not KILL. Sound familiar? Plain and simple. Thats why there is adoption. People abort because they are to selfish to carry the baby. I am a preachers daughter. I dont judge, i state the facts, as harsh as they may be. There is absolutely no circumstane in which abortion is ok. If the baby was meant to die it will by Gods hand. It is not our place to step in and intervene in Gods plan. So say what ever makes you feel better but the commandment says it all. ↑
You are the daughter of a preacher and you don't judge. Well get off your duff and volunteer or do something good for the world like education American's that the war in Iraq is bad and it kills people. ↑

newbaby - I agree with your views, but that does not mean that everyone will. Odd that you are a preachers daughter and you take such mean tactics to try and get your point across. Do you really think you will convert people to see your way? Perhaps if you offered advice in a manner that was not attacking someone might listen. Most of us believe terrorism is wrong, yet it still goes on. Abortion is legal. No matter how many attacks you throw, you will not change many minds. Instead you will drive away young women who are looking for help. There may be a girl out there looking for advice, answers, support, guidence. No one is going to listen to your mean hurtful words, instead you will turn away women that might still want to change their minds. I know you must be a passionate person about this cause, but go to work in a clinic that helps girls keep their babies. Save the ones you can save. What good does it do to spew the nastyness that you are spewing. It helps no one but hurts many and keeps away those that might want to keep there babies if they were able to ask a few questions and feel safe. You may be killing more babies by your nasty words because young girls who need help are afraid to post there questions for fear of evil words you share. I would think your father would rather you help those that need your help and ask for your help instead of being hurtful and evil with your words. Just because you view the world as you do does not make you a saint or even a good person. THere are MANY religious people who are evil but believe they are right. For now.. abortion is legal, you won't change that here, and you are doing more harm then good by spewing your evil words then you are helping. We all know abortion is murder, but how and who are you helping by posting that. Go post in a pro life forum if you want to reach people. ↑

I simply posted my opinion about her situation then got attacked for doing so. No matter how harsh, my opionion is my opinion and i have every right to speak it. After being attacked and insulted you better believe i'll stand up for what i believe in even more. ↑
Name: jen327 | Date: Jun 22nd, 2008 4:39 PM
Her post was about if she could have another child after an abortion. She as not asking if it was right or wrong. She was abviously scared. She wants kids someday, she was not asking if she should or should not. You posted "I hope it did mess you up. If u killed one baby you dont deserve another." I don't see how that helps, how that is a comment from a religious person, or how that is at all related to her post. You should have gotten attacked! ↑

I completely agree with newbaby. I have had many painful, severe miscarriages. My baby died at 6 months. They induced labor and i had to deliver my dead daughter. Anyone who kills an innocent child is a sorry excuse for a human being. ↑

I guess no on is reading my post. I agree aborthin is wrong. That is my personal choice. I think attacking someone on this forum is childish. This forum is open to everyone, this is not the place to preach my beliefs, this is a safe place for people to get information, vent, ask questions, and make decisions. If you have something positive to add, great, if not, she did not ask your view on abortion. Are you going to attack everyone who asks that question? If you are, your spreading your evil and probably helping someone who might choose pro life to not ask for help because they are afraid of your evil tongue and will just go ahead with their abortion. If you want to preach pro life, this is not the place. That is all I am saying. So take your evil tongue and go someplace else to spew your evil. I am so sorry for your loss, that is tragic. I have a friend how had a downs baby with T18, she died at 11 days, she was sweet and wonderful. Does that mean if someone has a positive marker for T18 they should have their baby? no that is a personal choice and if they can't suffer with the loss of their baby when it is born, who am I to make that choice for them? A loss of any kind is tragic, and if someone chooses abortion because they can't bear T18 then that is there LEGAL right. This is not the place to debate the law and make anyone feel attacked. Take that battle someplace else and change the law. I am an advocate for changing the law and volunteer regularly. But I also am SMART enough to know that personal attacks in a safe place like this do nothing other then push people away who may need help and may change their mind to save there baby if given love and support to make that choice. All you are doing is pushing people to kill their babies by shunning people from getting help. ↑

Wow your stupid. I made my point on this post and thats all i intended to do. Im not going to waste my time responding to your ignorant novel like posts. So have a nice life. Go try your worn out lines in the teen forum. ↑
Name: jen327 | Date: Jun 24th, 2008 5:03 PM
Wow New baby, resorting to calling people names. I see your preacher father thought you that. I never resorted to such childish games. I was just trying to say you can help with your point of view. Just not doing any good here. I don't need to call you names. I just want women to feel safe here to ask what questions they need and not attacked by your ignorance! But keep it coming. Perhaps there are teens out there that I can help. ↑

Oh my gosh, newbaby. I know this topic has been quiet for a few days but reading this has just infuriated me. I also agree that abortion is wrong but I fully believe you are allowed to your own opinions, just like you stated. You claimed you were attacked, but do you not remember that you were the first to attack? Kind of hypicritical if you ask me... I'm not hear to preach, and OBVIOUSLY you aren't either, but it's people like you who push people who are so close to believing away. Who are you to attack one for making a mistake? As you SHOULD know, in God's eyes all sins are equal and forgivable except for blasphemy. Heavenrae had an abortion, yes, you jumped on her and treated her badly which in God's eyes, which is the only thing that matters, was equal. You should know this if you are a preachers daughter. I'm ashamed to say you believe in the same things I believe in. If you are here to attack people, get a life. ↑
