Abortion

Hi I'm a mom of two kids a almost 6 year old and a almost 3 year old and due to my birth control messing up I'm now 4 weeks pregnant. I cant afford another kid right now so even though I never thought I'd ever have an abortion I now have pills coming to help me through it. I know its what's right for my family but it doesn't lessen the guilt as it didn't ask to be conceived.

I’m sorry you’re struggling with your decision.

It sounds like you gave it a lot of careful consideration and know that is the right choice for your family; for the two children you have.

Sometimes being a mom involves some tough choices. You didn’t ask to be pregnant right now - in fact, you were on birth control to actively prevent this, KNOWING that it wasn’t right for your family. So doing may be a challenge right now, but it doesn’t mean it’s not the right thing.
