"But I Don't Regret It"


"By the time I had the abortion, I was 15 weeks and two days pregnant. I went into hospital with my best friend for moral support, and the nurse gave me tablets to bring on labour. Because I was so far into the pregnancy, I had to give birth rather than have a straightforward abortion.It was horrendous. After two hours the contractions started, and I clung onto the hand of the midwife. Once I felt the baby starting to come, I had to go into the toilet and let it drop onto a stainless steel tray."Don't look," said the midwife. "Keep your eyes straight in front of you and walk away immediately." There was no way I could have looked down and seen my baby. I was numb.By then I was bleeding heavily, but I was allowed to go home. I went straight to bed and told my mum I had a very heavy period. For two days I lay in bed, shocked and exhausted, but I still I knew I had done the right thing.Three months later, I started university. I coped by just blanking the abortion out. I would make the same decision again, but it has affected my life. I am paranoid about getting pregnant, and haven't had a successful relationship since."

This is nuts. Note the first sentence of the next person - "I fell pregnant.....". Like it was a sickness or disease.

Update (of sorts....)

Where does that article come from? I mean is that literally a Pro Choice publication trying to really say "No Regrets" ??? I mean if it is, they failed miserably.

Or is it actually a parody by a Pro Life publication.

It just fills me with sadness to read those words. I have always said, if that baby or that "fetus" or that "zygote" is not a living being, is not a son or daughter of G_d, then why is there the guilt afterwards?
