I got pregnant in 2010. I was 22 years old. I didn’t know what to do, I was confused. The only option screaming at me was getting an abortion. Its illegal in my country, so there are very little qualified doctors available to do it. I had a quack do for me and I ended up with complications. Took over a year with lots of hospital visits and medications to feel normal again. It took some time to decide if I wanted an abortion or …

We were young and I lived in a brutal home. Stepfather’s can be beyond evil. I was on a lot of medicine to handle the trauma of home life. I didn’t dare tell my “parents” I was pregnant. The child was likely going to have some issues because of the medication but I was jot in a position to go to a doctor to find out; there were no privacy laws to protect a 15 year old.

I didn’t feel comfortable bringing a child in the world while I was in that state. Week 6 I finally made the decision to …

BY HIS STRIPES I AM HEALED June 2, 2021 – 10:09 am I was 15. Trapped in an abusive relationship with a grown man. I wanted to get away from him and keep my baby. I had no support and no where to go. My sister told me it would be for the best. I told her I didn’t want to do it. I should have fought harder. I sobbed the entire way to planned parenthood. I was so upset I started bleeding heavily. When …

I was 24. I was already a single mom to 3 children. I was in a relationship for 6 months when I discovered I was pregnant. I was taking precautions, how could they fail!?! I told my partner about it. He expressed he was joining the military and wasn’t ready to have a child and maybe I should think of adoption. I was struggling to make ends meet with the 3 I currently had. I was working 2 full time jobs. How was I going …
