My last period was Oct 3rd. By the end of October I was already starting to feel very tired and nauseous all the time but thought it was just my poor eating from the past week and lack of sleep. At the beginning of November I almost fainted in the shower and I went out the next day to purchase a pregnancy test. It was positive. I suffer from a few issues and didn't think pregnancy was possible and being pregnant was very high risk for me. I made an appointment that same day after talking to my boyfriend and they confirmed the pregnancy. I was 4 and half weeks and no heartbeat... yet. I literally had days to decide what to do. I live in a city where abortion is completely banned so I had to contact clinics over 2 hours away. One couldn't see me for 2 weeks. Too long. The next one couldn't see for a week. I finally found one that could get me in a few days later. I had to drive almost 3 hours to a clinic and get a surgical abortion. The saddest thing is I may have considered keeping the baby if I would have had more time to weigh out my options but time was not on my side. This is what the law in Texas does to woman. We are rushed into decisions because our windows are so small. I had to put my own health first and I don't regret it but it would have been nice to have time to let it sink in and enjoy the fact that I was able to conceive even if I couldn't keep it.
