I had an abortion a little over a year ago, and not a day goes by that I don’t think about what I did to my baby. I got pregnant my junior year of high school by an ex-boyfriend. When I told him, he told me to get an abortion and that he couldn’t tell his parents. I felt so alone and finally decided to tell my mom. I thought she would be furious with me, but I learned that she had been in the same situation as me when she was 18 and had decided to get an abortion.

I wasn’t really given a choice about what I wanted; everyone just assumed that I wanted an abortion and I was too afraid to stand up for myself. I went to the doctor and saw my baby’s heartbeat on the monitor and started to cry. Always remember that you DO have a choice and that abortion is permanent.
