See what you miss?

KaCeeJ · Veteran Member

Yeah.. I'm about 11 1/2 weeks along.. It's a wild ride already. I've written a lot about it on the NOBRMB.

Pizza · Sheriff of Paddy's

Oh. I... did not know that.

Is the dad gonna be involved with the child's life at all?

KaCeeJ · Veteran Member

I'm actually leaning towards adoption. I have a lot of thinking and weighing to do.. Just gathering info and hearing as many people's stories as I can.
I'm 22. Single. Barely financially supporting myself. All of my family members are states away and I'm on a career path that isn't exactly "single mom" friendly.. There's a huge part of me that wants to be a mother so it will be a hard decision.. But we'll see where life leads me!

Was abortion not an option?

KaCeeJ · Veteran Member

Not an option that I wanted. That **** can really **** you up. I'm pro-choice but I always told myself, personally, that I would never do that. For the first week I was sure that's what I was going to be doing.. But once I calmed down and let it sink in, I knew that I need to deal with the consequences. Also, I've always been told that I was infertile, so if this is somehow my only chance to conceive.. I wanted to take it even if I'm not going to be the child's mother.

Good luck with your baby stuff.

How can abortion "**** you up", beyond self-induced guilt?

..is this a serious question? Let me list all the ways that I personally know:

It can make you infertile.

It can give you an unbelievable harmful/potentially fatal infection and also make you more prone to certian cancers and diseases.

You can bleed for WEEKS afterwards.

If you abort early enough, you take a pill and have a self-induced miscarriage... Do I really need to go into detail on the physical and mental horrors of a miscarriage?

If you're past 8 weeks (most woman don't know they're pregnant until week 10), you have to have surgery to remove the fetus, OR they insert something to cut through your uterus and you have to give birth to a dead baby.

...Look into if you're ignorant enough about it to ask that question.

Are you getting your facts from Focus On THe Family, because these are anomalies and absolutely not the norm. It's bull**** propaganda. Like all surgeries, there are risks. Abortion is statistically pretty low in the risk factor, especially with just the RU486

There's a lot more that goes along with it than that, Pig. Don't pretend to know more than I do about it. Do you know lots of people that have gone through them? I do. I know people who've gone through them and been fine.. I know girls who have gone through them and had A LOT of emotional and physical problems from them. And lots of those ARE the norm. Bleeding for days/weeks? That's a norm. Going through a miscarriage with the pill? THAT is exactly what happens. Having to have surgery and give birth to a stil-born child? Those are both very frequent, as there are many women who don't find out they are pregnant until it's too late to take the pill.
Why would I take those risks when I don't need to? I would rather keep my sanity and not have a surgery that is unnecessary.
Passing no judgment on women who choose that route, I think for me it would have been the "easy" way out in many ways. I feel proud to not have chosen the easy way out and have made a decision that I can be proud of. It isn't going to be easy in any way and I am going to/have been going through a lot of very public judgment and opinion. This experience can and will enrich my life no matter what decision I make in the end.
