My husband had a vasectomy 2 days before our son’s premature birth. I had a difficult pregnancy with our son and we were constantly worried about losing him. He was born almost 2 months early but healthy. Fast forward to over a year later and I was pregnant again despite my husband having a vasectomy. It is rare but can happen. I was at high risk of something serious happening to me if I carried the child to term and we only ever wanted one child anyway. The planned parenthood in salt lake city Utah ultimately saved my life, as I knew the consequences of having this kid, and I am forever grateful for having the abortion. As a mother, I am more pro choice than ever and I know how important the decision is for every woman no matter the circumstances. I will always do my part to protect that choice.
