I started to feel very different, not myself, and that’s when I knew I was most likely pregnant. Nausea, vomiting, irritability, fatique, sleeping through the day, bloating. I was concerned, but I wasn’t afraid. I knew if I was pregnant, I was lucky to live in the state of Illinois which provides women with a multitude of resources and pregnancy options, including abortion pills and abortions. When the test came up positive, I imagined my life now, and all the goals I have for myself, completely taken away from me due to this potential baby. I could NEVER. I’m not ready for a kid, I might never be. I want to travel, see the world, experience my youth without beind held down by a child. Abortions are normal and necessary for women to live the lives they want.
