NaomiI had an abortion
How old are you: Between
40
and 46
Country of birth: United Kingdom
Year of abortion:
1989
Type of abortion: in a clinic or hospital with surgery
Initially a bit emotional, I realise now that i was probably hormonal. I felt relieved that I had done the right thing as I was in no position to take care of a child. I was single with no financial income.
Reason for abortion: financial issues, problems with my relationship, my personal reasons for not wanting a child
I was involved in a bad relationship. I knew it was not the right environment to raise a child. I was too young & only had part time work. I was unstable. I had the support of friends & family.
Feelings about abortion: grieving, confident, angry, in doubt
I was angry with myself for getting pregnant. I was slightly afraid. I did grieve a little. I thought alot about what I was doing & just knew deep inside that it was the right thing to do. I felt very relieved after the procedure. I cried alot for a day then felt confident I had done the right thing.
Religion no religion
