Hello!
I’m new here. After doing a bit of googling this website came up so I decided to join.
I’m 24 years old & I’ve just found out im pregnant. I cried at first, I’m okay now.
I know 100% that I want a termination and have already booked with Marie Stopes however I’m having a hard time with whether I should tell anyone or not hence why I’m here.
My family are very much pro life, I made a joke last week about being pregnant to gauge my moms reaction and she asked me what I’d do if I was and I said I’d have an abortion, to which she said “I’d never forgive you for that you keep it” and we carried on as normal.
We spoke about it again and I mentioned what she said and she said she would support me and she said “it’s whether you can live with the decision” I have been feeling strange for weeks and kind of knew deep down why, but it wasn’t until today I got a test and it was clear as day positive.
I’m 8 weeks pregnant according to dates of my last period. I did cry for about 5 mins thinking “why now”, I’ve been careless and had unprotected sex a dozen of times and never been caught out until this time! This has really made me learn my lesson! I’ll be stocking up on condoms!
I literally have nobody to talk to because I don’t want to tell anyone and have them judge me for wanting a termination. I feel fine & I know I’ll be fine after, however I’m kind of scared of what comes with abortions, is there a lot of pain & blood? Could someone tell me please?
I intend to go to the clinic alone and will make an excuse for where I am, I know I’ll be fine after as I had absolutely no feeling of joy or “I want this baby” it’s not the right time. I’m unemployed, live at home with parents and I am not ready for a child.
To be honest I don’t even feel like I’m pregnant & I don’t think I’ll feel any different after the termination. I’m just scared of the pain! Even though I’d consider myself someone with a high pain tolerance. I usually get period pains anyway!
Some advice on what I should do would be great and I’d hope there would be no judgement on my decision that would be great. Thank you xx
