Pregnancy Info HOME

i know it's been said you can resume being sexually active when you feel ready, but if you still have stitches in you? i think you should wait for your 6 week exam. that's pretty much to tell you if you're ready for that yet. especially after a c section. and if by chance you've ovulated and today is your conception, then it won't be a chemical abortion and there won't be any horribleness to it. it just keeps it from implanting and you have your period and bleed it out. and if you aren't ready for another baby, get him to wear a condom and don't give in without it. he isn't forcing sex on you, so you're both in this if you get pregnant again. none of this "my husband puts me on the spot". if you agree to sex without protection, you agree to another possible pregnancy. i doubt you are, though, but you might take an ovulation test to see if you're fertile.

I am planning on having an abortion but am afraid of the guilt I will feel. I am not in the ideal situation and could manage but I want to wait until I am happy and ready but I feel like it is wrong to have an abortion. I am just so confused. I would like to take control of my life, do this and wait for a better time, is that so wrong?

undecided - even with planned pregnancies there is often some sadness when one realizes exactly what one will be giving up to be a parent, and some adjustment into a new role. And not to be a pessimist, but is there ever truly a "perfect" time? (I know I used that excuse for quitting smoking -- and it was an excuse I could use for almost a decade). I am pro choice and not trying to sway you one way or another, but I wanted to point out that some of the things you're feeling are normal for all pregnancies, not just unplanned ones. I believe most clinics do offer counselling and can help you sort out some of these things you're feeling.

To Undecided....I really know what you are going through. I had an abortion back in October of 2007. I finally moved out and went away for school and as soon as I got up to school and started this new exciting experience I had been looking so forward to, it turns out I was really sick (morning sickness) and I found out I was pregnant. My boyfriend (who lived in my home town) lived 2 and 1/2 hours away from me and we had only been together 2 months, and my parents took out all kinds of loans for me to be able to go to school away, and I told myself I was going to get an abortion and I thought it was no big deal, being a selfish person. But immediately after I did it I was soooooooo depressed. I ended up doing awful in school and coming back home after two quarters. And now I wish that I would have just kept the baby and came home anyways. Living with that regret kills me EVERYDAY. It's always in the back of my mind no matter what I'm doing. I've always been really spoiled and gotten pretty much everything I wanted so it didn't take much for me so say "I'm getting an abortion" And to this day, I think abortions are awful, but unfortunately most people (like myself) have to find things out the hard way. Just please think about your decision....I hope you think about it more than I did. I will never tell someone what to do, or judge someone for having an abortion. I just do not look at the subject the same and I will never have another. I pray someday I will be able to have beautiful, healthy children someday in the near future.

I have two kids, one 18 month and the other 5 years. A few days ago I was pregnant and for many reasons including that I was using Paroxetine and Clonazepam ( this can be dangerous for the baby if is consume Durant the first three month of pregnancy ) I had a abortion. Now I feel bad about it, I feel like a murder, I miss my baby and after that horrible decision, I can't stop crying...
Now I think that the only way I can feel better is gearing pregnant ageing and having other baby.
But I am confuse about my relation ship with my husband…
Is chose that my pain is to strong that I don’t think I can live with it.
Please if some one can help me I will appreciate...

I am pregnant after having an early surgical abortion 3 months ago (which I regretted)

Having an abortion does not lower your chances of conceiving again (unless you developed an infection which was left untreated).

It can take the average couple quite a few months to conceive anyway, whether or not she's had an abortion in the past. The fact that you have been pregnant before means you have a good chance of conceiving again anyway.

I'd recommend using an Ovulation Predictor Kit and having sex in the fertile days each month. This is what I did and I was pregnant after two months. Also, the kit will show you when you are ovulating normally again (it took about a month for me to ovulate normally again). The kits are generally 99% accurate.

Good Luck everyone!

i found out i was pregnant last december. my spouse and i lived with my parents. had no jobs. nothing. so i had an abortion. i was so ashamed i didn't even tell my doctor. i've known him since i was a kid. i didn't go for my two week check up. then suddenly i have a really good job. a house. everything. my spouse and i have been trying since july to have a baby. we already have a 3 year old. did i wreck any chance i had? am i being punished? i wish i had a time machine. every month i'm left crying and heartbroken. i keep seeing babies and pregnant women everywhere i go.
