It's my body first and my health is important to me

How old are you: Between 30 and 36

Year of abortion: 2007

Type of abortion: in a clinic or hospital with surgery

I was sedated on the 2 ocassions

Reason for abortion: physical health reasons

I had a condition called hyperemesis Gravidarium. It left me weak and sick all the time. And at the time, there was no money for me to be on bedrest. It happened in 2007 and 2008 respectively

PLS PUT IN MIND THAT ABORTION IS NOT LEGAL IN NIG EXCEPT IN A LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. THIS TO ME IS SAD. WOMEN SHOULD HAVE A CHOICE OVER THEIR BODIES. So, to have the abortion I had to insist...

Feelings about abortion: comfortable, peaceful, happy

Though I am married but I am quiet not ready to have a child. I am not sure if I will rather not adopt and bring smiles to a face than struggle to have mine. We weren't even ready on the 2 occasions but the withdraw method seemed to have failed on those 2 occasions and I was like let me try and carry the pregancy to term but I was so sick with the hyperemesis gravidarium condition. It happened again the second time.

I really felt happy with the procedure because I would rather be healthy than struggle to stay alive with the pregnancy

Religion Christianity

Children: i have no children
