Visitor Comments: I stumbled onto this site today and am THRILLED that it exists. I have had more than one abortion and I'm Not Sorry. No regrets, no wondering, no tears, no heartache.....but I always heard differently from other women and thought maybe I was a callous bitch...nice to find out I am not alone....my abortions were for the best, for EVERYONE involved. I had recently taken a friend to a clinic for birth control and we were approached by the protesting pro-lifers just outside the clinic....After they spewed their rhetoric, I calmly asked each of them HOW MANY adopted or foster children did THEY have? Not one of them had any....hmmmm. They didn't say another word to me......  |

| Visitor Comments: This web site, I believe is what I needed. It's filled with somewhat sill but serious stories that come from women who have been where I'm still coming from.
It helps "uplift" me, because I basically put myself down about it daily, and this happened over a year ago (July 31st, 2008)
Thanks for the stories! |

Visitor Comments: I haven't visited this website since the last time I wrote here after my abortion. I think it is good for women to be able to share their experiences with others.
I do not think it is particularly helpful of those who preach this and that....Each circumstance is completely different. I do not think you can have a ready made solution for something that is so very personal. For example, a child the product of rape should be adopted? So does that make it much easier on mother and child then when the child grows up to realise the sad reality of how their innocent life began? That sounds just as traumatic.
Please do not write such insensitive comments if you have not been through the pain of having to make such choices in your lives. This is a website for women like myself to share our stories and to find some comfort in knowing that we are not alone. |

| Visitor Comments: I just found out i'm pregnant today and i looked for personal testimonies of positive abortions and I so glad that I found this. I am still uneasy about the procedure because humans fear the unknown, but i know what i must do. i am grateful that the US is pro-choice because, yes i effed up but now i have to chance to not have a child raised as another statistic. Where will you Pro Lifers be if my baby needs food or diapers and I can't afford it. Where will you be when I have to drop out of college to support a child that I can't. Will you stand in the well fare lines with me and complete daunting paperwork? I didn't think so. I know the choice i'm going to make is a hard one, but i refuse to raise a child in an unstable environment that could in turn cause them to grow up and live miserable lives. I'm sure you are all doing just fine with your white picket fences and mommy and daddy by your side to help you! Well not all of us are as fortunate. |

| Visitor Comments: Finally! A website that is not only pro-choice but is pro-woman. I got sick of finding websites that kept condemning young girls or woman and labelling them as 'guilt-ridden', 'unaware', or claiming they will have to live the rest of their lives with the sin of being a baby-killer. What kind of message is this to send? Humanity has to work past social constructions that claim femininity is weak and unaware. Prohibiting any woman from the right to have fertility options not only further constructs inaccurate images of woman but continues to fuel violence against woman. Being a pro-option/pro-choice individual does not mean you are against pregnancy or children, it is simply means that a woman's role in society is much more than to only function as a mare for the state and males. We are and all woman of the world are entitled to a have various safe options available on a decision that will affect the rest of their lives and anyone else involved. Getting these stories heard and making sure that these woman are honoured with the same respect of the stories from 'pro-lifers' is another struggle for woman and will contribute empowering other young woman to make the choice that is best for them. Our unity is so essential to our freedom, and for all woman's freedoms. Keep sharing and do not be put down by expectations of how you should or should not feel. |

Visitor Comments: Hooray for you! It is so refreshing and wonderful to see this website! So little progress has been made for women since we got the right to vote only since the 1920.
Right to lifers are so arrogant to think that THEY know when life begins - only God knows that and these people will pay on the day of judgement for their arrogance and cruelty to vulnerable women.
If they had their way women wouldn't even vote!
I will do what I can to help our cause and the support you provide so many women. Just knowing you are there is wonderful.
Keep on keeping on! And May God Bless You and all of you who provide safe, legal procedures!!
And Bless you for preventing women from having to go in the closet with a coat hanger. Yes - I know someone in this day and age who has done that because we live in Tennessee. Horrible, dangerous and so unnecessary. |

| Visitor Comments: Great website. Just trying to figure out what to expect. Have to wait until exams are over before I can get to a clinic. I guess thats one of the downsides to going to a college in the middle of nowhere. 3 more weeks - such a relief! |

| Visitor Comments: im not saying that abortion is wrong, but when someone kills someone else, arent they considered a murderer? and given severe punishment. I consider myself very much pro-LIFE because i believe that abortion is wrong as a form of birth control. There are such things as condoms, free birth control clinics, and such things as adoption. i however can undestand if the fetus will be born dead or the mother is in danger and nothing else can be done. I think that rape cases should be dealt with in a form of adoption because rape ontop of abortion? how emotionally scaring would that be for a young woman. |
| Admin Reply: What about when someone kills somebody else in a war? Or in self-defense? Using your argument why aren't we prosecuting soldiers? Abortion is legal, therefore it is not murder. And you honestly believe that being made to bear a rapist's child if that is not the victim's choice is LESS emotionally "scaring" than an abortion? My only hope is that you're young because only teenagers can come out with this shit ... |

| Visitor Comments: It's interesting to see the other side of the argument. Though I can't say that I'm all for abortion, it's eye opening to hear real women's stories about their positive experiences with abortion. Thanks for the unique site. |

| Visitor Comments: I don't apprecite the negativity women are posting (you all need to get lives). This website are for women who HAVE GONE THROUGH AN ABORTION...if you have not gone through it don't speak about it...you can't talk about something you've had to face. I have had an abortion, it was not an easy decision whatsoever, but I know who I am and I am at peace with God about my decision....all this negativity needs to stop...this website is NOT for you all....go somewhere else with all that BULLSHIT |
