I’m 17 years old, and I have had a boyfriend for four years. We were having sex and didn’t really didn’t think it would happen to me. I got a test and took it. It read positive. I was happy, and I knew right then I was keeping my baby, my world, my love.
Over a few weeks we had that talk and somehow I went to get an abortion. I was ready. I didn’t want to, but I didn’t think it out. Now living with that is too hard. It was one month ago that I let go of something that meant the world to me. I told my mom after and she cried. My mom would have been there for me. It was a mistake that I can’t fix. I try to deal with it each day. My boyfriend has a baby with another girl, and kills me to see the baby because I could have had that life that I wanted.
I was 16 when I got pregnant. The first thing that came to mind when I saw the test turn positive was that I needed to get rid of it. I couldn’t even tell my mother that I was pregnant. The only thing I could say was I needed an abortion.
After I got it done things felt fine for a while. Then it finally hit me. I regret doing it. I hate the fact I did, it and I started to hate myself. I wish every day that I could take it back and see my child’s face. Going to school didn’t help. There was a pregnant girl my age just a month more than I would have been. I sat in class watching her grow, thinking that could have been me. Don’t just jump on abortion. Think about it because it is life changing.
It happened so unexpectedly. I was newly 16, and I was in a relationship I didn’t think I’d have to worry about. The father and I had messed around since 8th grade. We were never stable. When we started falling apart I decided to call it quits for good. Two weeks later I didn’t feel good whatsoever. After school I found out that my ex was with someone else already, and I was fine until I took a pregnancy test. It came up positive. I couldn’t tell my parents. It would just be another thing that I was a disappointment to them. I told the father; and he blew up, saying it wasn’t his. He told me to solve it because our life was over.
I did what he and his new girlfriend wanted, and I went with my brother and his girlfriend. I used up a lot of the money I had saved for college. At the time I thought I was doing the right thing, but now that I look back at it, both the baby’s father and I regret it. We knew it could have been something good for us and get us to grow up, but you can’t change the past.
It haunts me every day. There are other ways to get out of this situation. Abortion just isn’t the right answer.
The father of my baby made me feel like I had no choice in the option of keeping my unborn child or killing it. I remember texting him up until the minute I went into the procedure room begging him to let me not do it. I went to sleep crying and woke up crying. He promised me he’d be there for me afterwards but he barely spoke to me again.
I wish I had stood up for myself and what I wanted and had not let myself be forced into something that I knew I would always regret. I cry all the time for no reason and it has made my college work suffer. Never let anyone push you into doing it. Stand up for yourself and your baby no matter how hard it is. I wish I had.
I was only 13 when I found out I was pregnant. I didn’t have a boyfriend, and wasn’t interested in anyone. I never thought anything like this would happen to me. I was at a party (with friends who were older than me) and was raped under the influence. After being late for my period, my mom took me to the doctor. I was told I was pregnant, and my life hasn’t been the same since. I wasn’t sure who the baby’s father was, and I was extremely depressed from everything. I was so afraid, and I decided to get an abortion.
I regret everything about my decision. In a way, I knew I couldn’t take care of a child on my own, and I wouldn’t want to put my baby through that. Some days though, I think I can. I wish I would’ve kept my baby. To everyone who gets pregnant & their first thought is abortion - DON’T do it. It’s not right to take an innocent life. And you don’t want to ruin yours!
It was the begining of January when I found out. When I told my boyfriend we were both in shock. We thought it would be a girl, so we named her Hope Marie. We knew we couldn’t keep her, but we wanted to.
It’s now February 9, and I had the abortion yesterday. I didn’t want to go, but my boyfriend told me to go, that I had to. I already regret it. I feel empty and wish I never chose to do it.
I was 16 when I was pregnant. I was dating a guy who was 18, and we were so in “love.” We had things even to move in together and start a life. I decided on abortion for the sake of me and my boyfriend’s future, and after it everything changed. He was not supportive and broke up with me two weeks later, after being together for a year, through text.
It has been well over 5 months, and I think about it every day. In some ways I regret it, but I always think about how I would hate to be forced to deal with that lying cheating ex for the rest of my child’s life. Honestly, I don’t know how I feel and not sure I ever will. But it hurts more than I could ever imagine in either way I would have chosen.
I was 14 years old when I got pregnant. I had been with my boyfriend who is 17 years old for about 8 months at the time. I wanted to keep it, and I knew it would be hard. I only live with my dad, and he didn’t give me any say.
Ever since then I’ve been an emotional wreck. I can’t be around babies anymore. I know I have a little angel watching over me now. I just wish he/she was here with me. I love you, little one, and I’ll never forget you ever.
I am 25 now, but when I was 13 years old I found out I was pregnant by my 20 year old boyfriend. I lived with my Grandmother and my sister at the time, and my grandmother told me that I would have to go to an un-wed mothers home if I did not have an abortion and that I would not see my sister again until she was 18. I was forced into having an abortion. I did not want to be parted from what little family I had left.
To this day I feel very sad and hurt when I think about the fact that I should have a beautiful child right now. I want more than anything in the world to be a Mommy now, but I’m afraid that because of the abortion I am unable to get pregnant.
About a year ago I found out I was pregnant, and I looked for the easy way out and had an abortion. I have come to realize that was not the best thing for me at all. I often have dreams about it and cry behind all this because I know my baby should have been here with me.
I did the abortion for the wrong reasons, and I regret it every day. I am feeling lost right now because I am pregnant and I don’t know if one out of two men is the father. I am praying it comes out for the best and I keep my family together. (DEAR GOD) please help me and give me the strength to go through with this. I feel like a terrible mother right now. I have two beautiful kids that I’m thankful for.
