On January 8, 2008, when I was just 15 years old I aborted my first child at 13 weeks along. The father of the baby and I had been together for about 10 months when I discovered I was pregnant. We were dead set on keeping the baby. When I told my mom all she could do was cry; but she soon came to terms with it, even became somewhat excited that she was going to be a grandmother.
I was, and still am, an avid equestrian (a large reason for my abortion). One day while at the barn, my boyfriend and I got into a huge argument; and he shoved me into a stall. My mom and I had been talking about me possibly having an abortion because it seemed like such an easy way to get rid of the problem, even though we were both Christian and very prolife. I broke up with my boyfriend that day and decided I definately wanted an abortion. All I could think was I get to keep riding, go to college, even stay thin. I was SO selfish!!
My ex and I got back together and were on and off for a while (I told him about the abortion right after I did it.) I was relieved for the longest time. Then all I could feel was pain and regret. I couldn’t eat or sleep. I put up a great front for others because I couldn’t talk about my abortion. It’s now June of 2010, and it’s still painful…much better, but I still think about my child every day. My ex hates me, and I have to deal with him all the time.
I know now that abortion in NEVER the answer. Girls, think about that baby growing inside of you. Do some research and see what your baby looks like now. My abortion nearly destroyed my life. There’s healing, but you won’t ever be whole again.
