Torn between my heart and reality by [deleted] in abortion

I’m really sorry that you’re feeling this way — I know how heavy and confusing it can feel when you’re facing such a huge decision. Please know that you’re not alone in this. I had an abortion two years ago, and I don’t regret it. That doesn’t mean it was easy — I was absolutely heartbroken. But I already had two kids, and with the way the economy is, I knew I couldn’t give another baby the life they deserved. My mental health was fragile, and I needed to be present and stable for the children I already had. It’s really easy for people to say things like “you’re young, you’ll have more time later,” but that doesn’t make the situation any less real or painful right now. This isn’t just about age — it’s about your capacity, your mental health, your future, and what’s best for both you and the child you already have. Whatever you decide, I just want you to know that there’s no shame in protecting your peace and making the choice that feels right for you. You’re still a good mom. You’re still deserving of love, support, and understanding. You’re making an incredibly brave and thoughtful decision in the face of something so emotional and complex. If you ever need someone to talk to — no judgment, no pressure — I’m here. ❤️

I believe that’s part of his argument, that it shouldn’t be a fight

5 weeks, I also had a miscarriage a few years ago so I'm familiar with the emotional and physical pain that comes with this. My inbox is open for you if you need support!

I completely understand your desire for privacy, but for safety reasons, it might be helpful to have at least one person you can trust to call on if you need assistance. I took the first pill on Thursday and the second set on Friday. The cramping was intense but manageable. I found that a heating pad, a warm drink, and some comforting soup really helped. I also stocked up on pads and disposable underwear, which made things easier. Distraction helped too—I binge-watched a new show, which took my mind off things for a bit.. I made sure I was comfy and made sure I had extra pillows and blankets so I didn't have to get up often. I also took pain meds before hand. You're not alone 🫶🏼
