I am in California where abortion is legal, thankfully.
However I’ll be twenty five soon and during my lifetime I have had three abortions: one when a relationship was ending, and the other two with a relationship that was still ongoing.
However, being told that I am a baby killer and selfish for not thinking about him and our current child really made me feel bad and just disgusting, as he put it.
Though he never once thought about how this could affect my mental health and my health condition.
All he cared about was how he wanted this second child. He wanted a playmate for child number one, who is on the spectrum, which within itself is a lot of work with them being a toddler and having that disability.
So once the second abortion was done, he really went overboard and in some ways is trying to trap me, though I have been using a birth control that works for me and happy that I was able to have such.
Without it I would be lost, since my body can’t tolerate estrogen and progesterone or just progesterone only birth controls.
