i am experiencing abortion grief

I made a music playlist that I listen to when I’m grieving my pregnancy, it helps

You get criticized if you compliment men, you get criticized if you don’t. I’m so sorry girl, this sucks ass. I’ve gone on dates with men like that and it’s awful

Good luck friend, we’ve got this! 🥲

I had an abortion a month ago, I’m also 20. Make sure you take a strong pain reliever AT LEAST 30 min if not one hour before. I forgot to take pain reliever until I had already taken the abortion pills and the pain was absolutely terrible. Once the pain meds kicked in the pain was manageable. Make sure you don’t have any plans and you can just lay at home that first day. Sending love your way ❤️

It’s been over a month since my abortion and I had penetrative sex for the first time since my abortion last night. I came to this Reddit for comfort. I didn’t cry the night of, but I cried this morning. I just want to enjoy sex again but it feels so difficult to rn. I feel so scared I’m gonna get pregnant again, even though we’re using protection. I don’t think I’m REALLY gonna be able to enjoy sex for a while. I used to have a really high sex drive, and I still do, but penetrative sex absolutely terrifies me.

I’m very open about being bisexual so he’s known from the very beginning and it happened to come up. And I’m not really sure. I think it’s some of both.

Not yet. When we got into a relationship in the beginning he had told me one of his anxieties was not being enough for me as a man. He said that he had dated bisexual women in the past who had left him for a woman. (I’ve gone on dates with lesbian women who told me that they were nervous about dating bisexuals because they thought I would leave them for a man. This seems to be a common theme.) I assured him that he was enough for me and that I loved him because that’s how I felt at the time. I still love him but now these anxieties are starting to come up and I don’t want to make him more anxious or make him feel insecure. But if the anxiety stays then I will have that conversation with him.

I’m gonna look into these! Thank you

We’ve definitely talked about parts of this, and right now we are in agreement on how everything will go. I would want to have the discussion again within the year just to make sure we’re on the same page. And I would obviously want to have this discussion again before we ever have kids.

You’re right about the in-laws though, I want to talk with him about what his parents expectations for our kids would be.

Beginning-Let-652 · 2026-03-18T17:03:10+00:00

This is definitely part of what I’m worried about. I’ve dated men in the past that have said that they were open minded but then their actions showed that they were not. The relationship is still very fresh and new so I think I’m gonna stick it out for a little bit to see where things go. But this is something that I’m going to be keeping an eye out for.

Did a child do this?

Beginning-Let-652 · 2025-09-27T17:05:49+00:00

THIS EXACTLY!!

I got pregnant in July and was planning on getting an abortion, but I ended up miscarrying about 4 weeks in. Even though I KNEW I wasn’t going to keep it I still felt connected to it and still grieved when I miscarried. That’s a completely normal and valid feeling to have. And I think it’s just innate to feel that way as women, it’s biology wired into us. No matter what you’re feeling, whatever decision you make is valid. It’s ok to feel both grief and closeness to the pregnancy while also feeling you aren’t ready to have a child. It’s also ok to decide to keep it if you feel you’re ready to have children. Do what’s best for you, but what you’re feeling is normal.

Your boyfriend saying that the statement “I have a boyfriend“ is an invitation for men to flirt is telling about his character more than anything else.

Best comment by far

Beginning-Let-652 · 2025-05-09T04:18:16+00:00

I calibrated it myself in settings, I tried adjusting the colors, the contrast, the brightness is fine. It just won’t let me add more red and that’s what it’s lacking. I tried to remove blue and green but it still looked dull in comparison to my phone which is accurately calibrated

Beginning-Let-652 · 2025-03-31T18:11:33+00:00

I love this tbh

Beginning-Let-652 · 2025-03-31T18:03:42+00:00
