Sharing Truth
Two Abortions, Location Not Given

This story is published at Shout Your Abortion.

I know what kind of mother I want for my children in the future

I am/was not ready to be a mother both at 18 and newly 23. Both were accidents that I will never forget.

But I don’t look back on it because I would’ve never given them the future they deserve.

Now I know what I want so when I’m ready, I will have no worry. Endless crying and emotions. But it’s normal. You loved something that grew from you.

"I’ve just had a second abortion almost exactly nine months after I first got pregnant."

"People tell other people they should feel guilty. I only felt relief."
