Who here has also had an abortion?

im 16 and I was pregnant. I was 9 weeks into the prgnancy, then I decided to get an abortion. so I did. now am I thinking did I do the right thing by doing that? so many people have told me NOT to do it, but its like they never been pregnant at 16 so they dont fully understand. so has anybody gotten an abortion to? or had a baby at 16 or is now pregnant at 16? if so did I make the riht choice? :(

Answer #1

None of us can tell you whether or not you did the right thing - regardless of what our own beliefs are.

All opinions aside, do YOU think you did the right thing? In the end, that’s all that matters. People are going to judge you regardless, so you need to stick to your guns and accept that you did what you had to do.

I got pregnant at 17 and I had my daughter…now my daughter is 17, and these have been the most grueling years of my life trying to raise a child when I was so young and inexperienced. I, personally, don’t believe in abortion, but knowing what I know now, I can’t tell you that you were wrong for the decision you made.

Yes, you could have adopted the child out, but there’s an argument for everything and none of us know what your reasons are…none of us need to know what your reasons are.

Sometimes all we can do is survive…don’t beat yourself up over it…you already have a lot of healing to do without worrying about what other people are thinking.

Answer #2

I don’t believe you did anything wrong, you did what you thought was right. I have never been pregnant so I can’t say I know how you feel , but if you need to talk you can fun mail me :) I can help and support you if you need it…I hope I helped :)

Answer #3

I’m sure you did the right thing. I honestly never understood why people think abortion is murder. To me the baby doesn’t have a soul yet until like at 4 months. I think it’s alright when you do it earlier than that. If you feel you did the right thing then that’s all that really matters.

Answer #4

I also agree with ichi.

People will be judging you, but it doesn’t matter. What matters is whether you can live with the decision that you have made.

For now, concentrate on recovering and making peace with the choice that you made.

Answer #5

I think you did the right thing your to young you want to have the teenager life before you have a baby but I think mabes you could of given it to an adoption or summin I think you are somewhere in the middle but just make yourself happy and think what you did was right that always lifts your sprits! x.

Answer #6

I agree with ichi, don’t beat yourself up on the decision you made. what I see is that either way, there are gonna be hard/negative feelings that you’ll feel anyway. what you did is what you think was right based on the circumstance. just learn from it and move forward. good luck and I wish you the best :)

Answer #7

I’m so sorry to hear about your situation. I must admit, I really don’t think this is a proper website to discuss this topic. You are obviously going through a rough time, and you are going to get a lot of insensitive answers that will make you feel worse.

You may find comfort in visiting passboards.org.

Pretty much everyone there has gone through what you are going through now. They give you advice on ways to cope, and support when you feel as though you can’t cope. It seems to be monitored very well, so you don’t get any insensitive remarks that make you feel worse.

Whats done is done. No need to dwell on your decision. All you can really do at this point is give it time. Good luck hun! hugs

Answer #8

if I would have gone threw with the prgnancy, I would have gotten to emoitionaly attached to it and would not let it go. I was already starting getting attached to it. so thats why I got it done. I didnt want this to happen but life is hard and I gotta do what I gotta do for whats best for me and that baby would have grone up with a bad life I wouldnt alway be able to be there for it, I dont want that to happen to my baby.

Answer #9

Then you did the right thing…don’t worry about that anymore :)

Answer #10

I am totally against abortion. You simply could have adopted it out to another family. You could have saved a life.
