My first abortion was May of 2018. I wasn’t ready to be a mother, especially being a single mother. My boyfriend wasn’t really father material in my opinion, and the pregnancy we had really was an accident. I knew deep down that abortion would be the best option, and that was the choice I made. I never did tell him about it, I didn’t want to hurt him or allow him to somehow change my mind. We broke up a couple months later on bad terms, and I was seriously happy that I aborted when I did.

That first abortion allowed me to live a good easy life, and that abortion allowed me to find a good man, and that abortion gave my husband and I a beautiful baby girl.

My second abortion was because I felt like I needed more time for myself before we could have another baby. Our daughter was 17 months when I found out, and we were having a hard enough time taking care of her along with work and the house and bills! I decided not to tell my husband about this pregnancy, he was already dealing with enough, and I knew that having an abortion without his knowledge would make it that much easier for the both of us. I had my second surgical abortion on June 25th. Thankfully, I was only 10 weeks and it wasn’t all that bad of a procedure.

It’s my body and it is my choice, and I have no regrets about the choices I made on all three of my pregnancies. And my husband and I still want a second child, but I would like to wait a couple more years before that time comes.
