Well, the way I see it......you were old enough to get pregnant ...you're old enough to make some decisions.

Maybe she feels some guilt. Maybe she feels like it's kind of her fault that you had the abortion b/c if she had taught you better........you wouldn't have gotten pregnant in the 1st place. On the other hand, if she's laying the blame on you - that's just wrong.

Yes, it takes alot of courage to do what you did. I had an abortion at 17 years old because I was scared to death that if I told my mother then she would hate me. So, I went and did it with her never knowing. Don't know if she knows til this day.

The important thing for you to remember - no matter whether your mom supports you or not.....is to ALWAYS use birth control and do your absolute best to prevent the same thing from happening again. Double up if you must!

I use the Nuva Ring and it's pretty awesome - you just forget about it!

You must be having a TON of emotions now..........My heart goes out to you girl....hang in there.........life does get better.
