I am twenty five years old and it is six days before my birthday. I found out three days ago I am pregnant again.

I’ve had three abortions and four miscarriages.

My first abortion was my choice, I agreed with my ex we were in a hard place in our relationship and financially unstable.

Less than a year later I was pregnant again. I had told him I didn’t want to abort, we were doing better and could figure it out, but he had other ideas. He pressured very hard for me to have another abortion.

The third was harder because I was afraid of my ex who I had been with yet again and he scared me.

I decided to go half on paying for another with him. We broke up at this point because of emotional and physical abuse, but the sex was incredible and when I would be sexually frustrated I would visit again.

Now I have made the same mistake again of revisiting him.

This time though I had taken a morning after pill; but it didn’t work.

Part of me wants to be a mother, but he frightens me. I’m grateful for being able to have the option and to read I’m not alone!
