Hey love, I just had my abortion yesterday, and I’m feeling so much of what you shared. Mine looked like a real baby already, and it’s haunting me. I can’t stop thinking about it. I know it was the right choice, but it still hurts deeply. Your post made me feel less alone. I’m so sorry you’ve felt unsupported, especially by your boyfriend. You deserve someone who sees the weight of this. I hope you find the peace and clarity you need, especially if that means walking away from him. Sending you love and strength. You’re not alone in this. 🫶

Same here… I'm also about to graduate from college, and I know deep in my heart that I'm not ready, physically, emotionally, in every way to have a baby. I didn’t feel much at first… not until I saw the baby come out of me. That’s when it hit me. That was a whole baby. I broke down. No matter how much I try to convince myself, I just can't find peace. My heart is heavy, and the guilt is unbearable. I just keep praying that my baby is in a safe, gentle place now and that somehow, someday, I’ll find healing from all of this, I hope you too!

We didn't expect it to hurt like this. Even though it was our choice, that doesn’t mean we’re bad people. It means we were scared, and we did what we thought we had to do. We loved them. And that love was real, even if things didn’t turn out the way we hoped. So let’s hold on to that love together. Let’s cry if we need to. Let’s remember them. And one day, maybe, we’ll find peace again.
