I had three abortions. One d&c and then another about 6 months later bc I didn't emotionally process my first abortion and made unsafe choices.

My third was what was called RU486 at the time. I regret none of them.

I wouldn't have the life I have now with my partner and two planned-for kids.

I can parent better than I would have 10 years earlier and my career is stable.

I talk about my abortions because someone was honest to me about her previous abortion when I was struggling and it helped me so much.
