I have 17 years old when I found out that I was pregnant and i was scared to death! I cried and cried for what seemed like days. I have never been so nervous as I had to tell my parents what I had done. They didn't even know that I was sexually active and to have to tell them that I was pregnant was terrible! My mom didn't sit down and talk to me when I told her that I had something to tell her, she just kept doing what she was doing. After I had told her she just looked at me and sat down and got the ***** look on her face like she was sooo dissappointed in me and she started to cry a little bit. She didn't say anything at all to me. I had no idea what to do next. dad was at work so mom called him and told him. I regret what I had done to my baby everyday!! And to make matters worse my parents absoluately hated the guy who got me pregnant and we secretly dated for about 3 and a half years. My mother was not supportive at all and when I told her that I wanted to keep my baby she would get so mad and tell me that I had to find somewhere else to live and find a job and a way to support everything that me and my baby needed. My dad didn't say much of anything about the whole situation, he kept to himself. My baby's due date was jan. 23, 2008. I now babysit this little boy that i have got completely attached to.I love him to death, I've been babysittin him since he was about 5 months old and now hes almost two.I recently seen his baby book on night and i found out that he had the same exact due date as my baby... I believe GOD sent me him to relieve the pain a little bit and it has helped me so much. It's a terrible thing waht I did but I couldnt see my life with the babys dad. He cheated on me while we were dating and he got another 17 year old girl pregnant.. they are pretty much married now and it makes things worse when I see them together and their happy little family..I don't know what to do. But now my baby is in heaven with my grandma and great grandma...

I had just turned 16 when I found out that I was pregnant. I was in shock (made the Dr. do a blood test to be sure), but knew I could never murder my baby. I told the father and he said he would support me in whatever decision I made. When I wouldn't abort, he insisted on adoption. That was a possibility, but it was all so new. I went home and told my parents that night, knowing that I would loose the nerve if I waited. They were disappointed. My sister had just had an abortion a month before. My father wouldn't speak to me when I told him I wasn't going to have an abortion, but my mom was always there for me. Thank God for her! After I decided to keep my baby, I broke up with the father for good. When I was seven months along, my father realized that this was to be "his own grandchild", and he wanted to be apart of his/her life. He's had my back ever since. I had a beautiful baby girl. We struggled alot those first years, but my husband adopted her as his own when she was six. Now my daughter got pregnant at 16 but decided to have an abortion. Even though I opposed it, I had to support her. I drove her there, paid for it, and let it happen. I can never forgive myself for doing that! She was crying when she came out of the room, but by then it was to late. They killed my grandbaby! I have a picture of what it would have looked like at the age he/she was killed, and save it so I will never forget what I have done, and to vow to try to save other girls from going through what my daughter went through. A year later she found out she was pregnant again. She was going to have it and either give the baby up, or keep it. Unfortunately, she gave birth to a stillborn baby girl at 20 weeks. I delivered it at home, we didn't know she was in labor until it was too late. I now think maybe God took this child so that we would understand what a terrible thing we did to the first. Please God, forgive us! I see those pictures of those poor babies, and cry. What have we done? If we could only go back and do it all over. Now we visit our babygirl at the cemetary in our family plot, but we don't have anywhere to go and mourn the first. How could we? How could I? Dear Lord, please forgive me. Please ease my pain.

I had my son when I was 16 & I was forced to marry the babies father by my father. Things between my husband & I went from bad to worse so I took the baby and left him. I moved back home with my family and I started seeing this guy who I thought really cared about me......I was so wrong. I ended up getting pregnant and was scared because my family was so mean and for them to find out that I was pregnant with another mans child terrified me! My mother seen me in the shower one day and said "Oh My God You Idiot Youve Went & Got Yourself Pregnant"! She made me feel so low down and ashamed that I didnt want to bring anymore shame upon my family. All I wanted to do was just get rid of this baby that was inside of me, so my mother and a friend of hers made an appointment and took me to the abortion clinic and told me to go on in there and get this thing done and that they would be waiting for me out in the car. I was so scared but I went ahead through with the abortion and the pain was horrible. I started crying while on the table and the doctor told me that I was doing the right thing and that he was having a difficult time because my baby was running from the object he had inserted to remove the baby.After the doctor was done he told me to take precaution from now. Exactly 6 months later I found out that I was pregnant again and I had been taking birth control since my abortion. My parents found out and they went nuts ( even though I had my own place & supported myself and my son without any help from anyone). My mother screamed at me telling me that I was a fool and that I had better abort this one too! Well I stood firm and refused to have another abortion! God had his reasons for me getting pregnant again. I am so thankful that I didnt listen to my parents because I had a beautiful baby girl who was so full of life and she gave me so much love & happiness. Today my daughter is a mother to a little girl and Im so happy that I refused to abort my daughter. Theres not a day that goes by that I dont think about what my aborted baby may have been. I often wonder if it was a boy or a girl and what it would look like. Thats been 21 years ago and not a day passes by that I dont think about my baby and how I wish I would have kept it. To the girls & women who are thinking about having an abortion please reconsider because you will live the rest of your life with guilt and shame and remember that God gave you that baby for a reason.....I wish I would have kept mine.

I was alone and 15, I was dating a boy who was 19, we had dated for over a year, and I thought I was in love with him, and I thought he loved me. he told me he did anyway untill I told him I was pregnant. I was from a Catholic home attended Catholic school and I did not have a good relationship with my parents. I was very dumb when it came to Doctors and medical tests, my baby's dad had told me that he was going to take me to a clinic to be checked out I had to be about 10 weeks pregnant at the time, it was a Women's clinic they said they had alot of options to offer to someone like me.. What I did not know was that the baby's dad had only one option on his mind.
The nurse brought me back took a urine pregnancy test on me (positive) I already knew that, then took me for a ultrasound , I did not get to see the screen they would not let me she referred to the baby as weeks not fetus ..she told me that I only had a short amount of time to have the procedure because the farther along I get the more money and risk would I have. I looked at her and said "WHAT"? I am only here to make sure I and the baby are fine, what I dio not know was that my boyfriend had already payed the $600.00 for a abortion for me all I had to do was consent. I did not consent but I did not want this baby either. I was angry, confused, and alone again, my boyfriend did everything he could to try to sway me including offering me money to go thru with it, I thinks the going price for my baby his baby was 500 bucks, I ended that relationship.I worried everyday about how to get out of this I wanted the baby to die, to miscarry something, I could not bare this. And I still could not come to abortion although I layed on a abortionist's table once. I was eight months when my parents found out I was pregnant and they thru me out I moved into my best friends house they were Catholic also and my bff mom took care of me, I had my son via C-section I was 16 . I did not raise my son. He went to live and be raised by a family member he is now 19. We really do not have a good relationship and I have struggled with the choice I made to keep him, I thought later that If I had a abortion he would'nt hate me so much now. After finding this web site I am so glad I never aborted him.. We will work out our relationship one day by the grace of God. He had and has a wonderful life, and he had amazing talents. He is a artist of music and had the gift to draw, all of which he received from his father . My son has had a hard time dealing with the fact that I have other children now and that I could not keep him..But given time he will come to understand the hardship and sacrafice I had to bear, it is a cross I carry everyday.. But I thank God for touching my heart..

I am a different case... I did not chose to have an abortion. I had 2 miscarriages within 6 months. I wanted both of my pregnancies. I wanted the babies that I did not have. I just want to let all the mothers out there that are thinking about abortion, please please please don't do it. There are so many women out here who really want a child. Adoption is available. Why kill an innocent child? Why not let the child have a chance to live and make another woman that is not able to bare children have the chance to be a mother? Either way you will never the child! Please give women like me a chance to be a mother even if it is your baby! It's the right thing to do!

The thought of abortion never even entered my mind. I am completely against it. Even if I was raped and became pregnant, I would carry that baby. I might put it up for adoption, but I would definately not kill it. That is a person, from conception. God doesnt make mistakes, if you are pregnant it is for a reason. That child is to live.

I think expected mother's should just sit and think of everything before they make that decision. It's a life changing event. CHILD BIRTH IS BEAUTIFUL!!! I just sit wait and pray! My little girl is my blessing! Once you are a mother your whole world will change. To look at those eyes, those arms, those,little hands. When your son or daughter makes you smile when you are down or sad. That is a moment you will never forget. Remember GOD will put nothing on you that you cannot handle. Please for Heavens sake don't make a fast decision and think later "if I would have had my baby he/she would probably be this age, probably doing this." Trust in yourself trust that you can over come this. Trust Pray and Trust again. The road isn't easy but the road you will walk hand and hand with your child is beautiful it's long and I promise you will not walk the road alone. You take care of your child and you child will take care of you. I LOVE YOU ALL!!

I HAD AN ABORTION SEVERAL YEARS AGO, YEARS LATER I MARRIED A WONDERFUL MAN AND PLANNED TO HAVE A BABY, WHEN WE FINALLY CONCEIVED I HAD A HORRIBLE MISCARRIAGE, I BELIEVE GOD WAS THINKING THAT IF I DID NOT WANT A BLESSING WHEN HE GAVE ME ONE; THEN WHY SHOULD HE GIVE ME ONE WHEN I WANT IT? THINK ABOUT IT...........WE WANT THINGS IN OUR TIME, BUT GOD GIVES THEM IN HIS TIME.

To the last poster that wrote >>"I was disgusted when I looked at this site because whoever created it is exploiting the children whose lives were lost. Looking at those poor children I wanted to cry, not because of how they died, but instead I wanted to cry because their souls were being disrespected. "<< I have NEVER READ SUCH HYPOCRITCAL COMMENTS IN MY LIFE!!! Saying in one breath that its a woman's choice and then to say they cried for their souls... OH PLEASE !!!! Get real!!!!! This website is telling and SHOWING THE HARD TRUTH and you can't handle it!!! And what do you think God has to say about butchering babies for selfish choices, what about Jesus ! We have to remember that there will be times in life that the hard truth can be painful to hear, see or even understand. But there is one thing that we must always remember, for anyone that may be pregnant, Jesus loves you, God loves you, and God also forgives those that repent of their abortions when they go to Him. He is so faithful to forgive and help turns things around. Jesus will always be there to help you and your baby. Those that do not understand why there are courageous people out there that are strong enough to stand up for these precious babies are the same ones that only think of self first. Thats sad. This is one of the best websites that I have seen so far. They have come across in love to those that have suffered the loss of thier little baby because of abortion, they show the truth about what abortions really do to these innocent babies, and they also help those in crisis. Now that is love. And that is what God is. Love. And when you walk in that pure love, there is nothing you would even want to do to destroy another human being just for selfish reasons. Pray. If you are pregnant, God will tenderly help and guide you. You will never regret keeping your baby, and to give a child up for adoption is one of the most courageous acts a parent could do for their child. God bless you

I am sorry to have to write this, but as I look through this site I was disgusted. I don't agree with abortion, but I can't stand to have that right taken away from me. As a woman, I don't believe that the government or anyone for that matter has the right to tell me that I HAVE to have a baby. If you look back to when abortions were illegal, women didn't care. They still got abortions. Some women were so desperate that they would try to force a miscarriage with a wire a hanger. I believe that is more wrong than abortion on so many different levels. I was disgusted when I looked at this site because whoever created it is exploiting the children whose lives were lost. Looking at those poor children I wanted to cry, not because of how they died, but instead I wanted to cry because their souls were being disrespected.

I was 17 years old when I met the father of my baby. I had only turned 17 2 months prior and became pregnant by him. I had considered abortion at first, but knew all along that I could not do it because of my beliefs. I had to eat my own words and they were difficult to swallow. All my friends that had abortions I bashed for it, now it was my turn to hear it. I deicided against the abortion. There was no choice for me. Just befor my 18th birthday I had a beautiful olive skinned baby named Ryain Abdul (after his father). It was hard the first couple of years. Then I decided to buck up and be the adult I had become when I decided to have pre-martial sex. Now I am 21 years old, married (not to the father), working full time as a Patient Care Assistant, I'm in nursing school, on Phi Theta Kappa (honors), and my son is now 3 and as smart as a whip! He amazes me everyday! I know that if I can make it on my own anyone can. Abortion is not the answer! Those same friends that had their abortions now regret everything they've done. Even simple pleasures in life cannot be enjoyed for them because something is missing, their child! Alhamdulillah I have my son with me... Allaho Akbar.

I too was confused and abortion was legal in calif in 1973. I didnt know how i would raise a child by myself. My boyfriend left soon after i found out i was pregnant. I honestly can say i have regreted that day for 30 years now. The month of May has always been hard for the was the month my baby would have been born. If i could give anyone any advice it would be raising your child is hundreds of times more rewarding than hating yourself for 30 years. I have 8 beautiful children now..and never will one replace the one I never gave a chance.

I already had two boys when I found out I was pregnant with my third. We didn't want the baby. We we're in the parking lot of the abortion clinic when the images the protesters carried got the best of me. This isn't what God would have wanted, and suddenly, neither did I. The father was very upset but I demanded he take me home. I prayed that afternoon and asked for God's help. Then, I was at peace with my decision to keep him. Today, he's 5 years old, and the Joy of my life. He gave me a second chance at being a mother, and taught me to be more of an attentive parent of my older two boys. I love him... he's my Guardian Angel, he's my teacher, he's my son. I am 33 now, still a simgle mother, and while we aren't wealthy and sometimes struggle to make it day to day... I don't regret my decision to keep him. I do think of houw our lives would be if I aborted him. I think how I would be if he weren't here. I think of how my older boys' lives would be had I not been given my second chance. And I thank God for the strength of mind and heart that my son is here.

The last few years of my life have been filled with many memorable events. When I was 17, I graduated high school, 18 got married, 19 had my first child. When I found out I was pregnant (after only 8 months of marriage) I was shocked, excited,and worried all at the same time. I just wanted to write and let you know that there is no other feeling in the world than when the doctor lays that baby in your arms for the first time. It is such a better and more memorable experience that what brought the baby in the world anyway (lol). If you decide to keep your child, I am telling you now, you will have bad days. She will cry, scream, throw tantrums. But to wake up in the morning and she her smile shining brighter than the morning sky, is worth every tear and heartache that you have to endure. Your child will be the most special thing in your life. And if you decide you do not want to keep your child, please put him or her up for adoption. There are so many wonderful families searching for a little one to be a new addition. Your child can have a good life even if you are unable to provide it for her. God bless you all.

I am writting about my sister who had an abortion just 5 months ago. It was the worst experiance of her life. I have two kids and I was a young mother at 17 I had my first at 20 I had my second both girls and it has been hard for my sister to be around them I watched her go from a happy person to a very upset depressed person I cant even start to feel the pain she is in and if there is any other choice and there always is dont chose this way it was a very painful thing for my whole famliy to go through. She just recently found out she was pregnant again and the bad thing about it is she found out on the same week the other baby was due. please pray for her and the baby that this time she makes the right decision for herself. Also remember it dose not only affect the mother and child the whole family grieves for the baby. please look into other options like adotion befor you have an abortion. thank you for all the testimonies on this site it has helped me to read them and feel that other people feel the same as I do. thanks again michelle

In 1995 I was 17yrs old and found out I was pregnant. I was also in a very abusive relationship. I was beaten and therefore had a miscarriage. 5 miscarriages total! I'm now 25 and with a man that I love more than anything who is the father of my 3yr old and we're expecting another in June 2004. I don't care what the circumstances are. Don't get an abortion. At least have the child and give it up for adoption to someone who cannot have children. Children are a gift from God and He would never give you anything you couldn't handle.

I have a son who will be 5. I have been on-again/off-again with his father since 1997. He was physically abusive until last year. He is a wonderful father to our son. After 5 months apart, in a moment of weakness we had sex this past August on his (the fathers) birthday. I dont know what it was but I knew instantly I was preganat. I had been off the Depo shot for 18 months because we were trying before the last breakup. When I found out for sure Sept. 5th is cried and cried. Truthfully the thought of abortion crossed my mind for half a millisecond but immediately was gone. I dont care what situation you are in. You can make the best of it. I look at this as being the way God wanted it. So many people cant conceive, so why use abortion as a form of birth control. If I wasnt ready to take care of him I should have abstained or used protection. I will be 7 months pregnant tomorrow and wouldnt change a thing. The father and I have been together since November and yes its hard but I do it for my kids. We are having another boy. REMEMBER: GOD WILL NEVER GIVE YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE!!!!!!!

First of all,I never thought it would happen to me. even though many girls in school had babies.Then I found out I was pregnant July of 87,she was born in October(I didn't believe I was pregnant at first)I went to the dr who confirmed I was,I asked about an abortion but since I was over 5 months by then it was illegal to have an abortion.I did get excited about the pregnancy & my family was supportive of my decision to keep the baby rather than put her up for adoption. I then found out about a year later that I was pregnant again (not the same father) and still not married...I found earlier this time so I thought it would be the best option for me even though my boyfriend wanted to keep it, he drove me to the clinic where the procedure was to be done even though he was against it he was trying to be supportive of my decision. I went inside alone and had to read some information before it could be done, I had an ultrasound because I thought if I knew the baby had problems it would be easier to go through with it, all signs were of a normal healthy child, I saw the moniter and heard the heart beat and had some counseling, they wanted me to be sure I knew what I was doing there was no going if I change my mind, if I wasn't absolutely positive I was ready to have the abortion to go home and think about it and come back later if I decided I still wanted to. I made a few more appts but still couldn't do it. Then I had another daugher june 89 and then I did get married in april of 90 and by then I felt I was ready to have another child. I wanted one very badly. My next daughter was born October 91. I considered having a tubal ligation but the drs I had refused to perform the procedure on me since I was only 22. they said I would regret it. So in august 93 my son was born.I am so Thankful that they are all here, I have learned so much about life from them. They are all here for a purpose. It is exciting to watch them learn and grow. I am very blessed.

As soon as I found out I was pregnant I knew I was going to do it alone.....I knew I would have to. I never considered abortion. I knew I could make it work someway, somehow it would be okay. I have the most beautiful boy now. Life is great! I am raising him completley alone....I have a lot of support from my parents...But it was all ok. I felt torn at the begining..about raising my son without a father. He'll be ok though he has 5 uncles that adore him and proud grandpa. I wasn't sure if I could do it alone...I just knew that for me there was no other choice. I'm doing it and my boy is happy. It all turned out okay. If you're torn now, just remember, THIS TOO WILL PASS.... It will all settle itself....you'll be alright

I was eighteen when I became pregnant with my daughter. I remember that my mother demanded that I have an abortion. I knew that I had to make the choice that would be best for me and me alone. Noone can tell you what to do when you are faced with an unplanned pregnancy you must decide for yourself no matter how old you are. I felt that my child should not have to suffer and die because I was irresponsible. I knew that I had made the choice to participate in unprotected sex; how could I then choose to punish my child for my own irresponsibility? Motherhood forced me to grow up and except responsiblity for myself.I was a single mother for two years before I met a wonderful man who fell in love with both me and my daughter. It has been a long uphill battle but I feel that I am winning. My daughter is now seven. She is a beautiful little girl who loves life. I also have a two year old son. I can truely say that I have absolutely no regrets about chosing to keep my child. Even though the first few years were trying both emotionaly and finacially I always seemed to find the strenghth to pull through. I know have a sucessful career and I am continueing my college education.

Please don't abort your child. There are so many ways you can find help and become a great mother. I didn't think I could the first time, so I used the excuse that I had too many complications (which I did) and aborted. When I decided I wanted children, I miscarried 2 in a row. Now that I have my wonderful son and a daughter on the way, I wonder what might have been, even though I have no idea what would have happened. Would I have had the first one? Would I have miscarried the others if I hadn't aborted? Heaven only knows. But even when I had my sincerest doubts about raising my children, I got through it, and you can too. Please don't let the pictures on this site become YOUR baby. Stand up, be an adult, and face your fears. You'll make a great Mommy.

In 1973, abortion became legal. Within a few months, I had my first abortion. I don't know if ultrasounds were available, but no one really explained to me that this baby was really "a baby". I saw it as a problem. Abortions were only available in California so I, along with probably 50 other girls took an "abortion tour" to Los Angeles, where we had hotel rooms and abortions planned for the following day. I had my abortion and sort of blocked it out of my mine for several years. Now I am 48 and have a 15 year old boy and a 12 year old girl. I HATE that I aborted my child, and am often tormented by the thought that I actually KILLED my child! I looked at these pictures and was even more devistated as I have never really SEEN any thing so horrible. Although God has forgiven me, I cannot. I pray for my children and ask forgiveness for my decisions. The only thing I can do now is pray that God lets me help just ONE woman/girl to change her mind about killing her child. You can NEVER forget that you have done this! That is something that the pro-abortionists don't tell you. It has nothing to do with pro-choice. Its got to do with MONEY - pure and simple. They don't care about YOU!

First I have been there I was a 16 year old mother of a healthy baby boy. I was scared and confused but I knew I loved this child and would want more for him than death with out life. I had him. I am raising him without the help of his biological father, I went back to school got my GED and went to college to become a registered nurse in the neonatal intensive care unit, it was hard but I did it, don't underestimate yourself. I could not imagine life without my son Brett, I could not imagine his handsome face in those photos on this site. He is now 13, blonde, precious and smart, I love him dearly and do not regret my decision. Sometimes I believe that people may comfort themselves by thinking that this child is not formed or that it is a bunch of cells floating around, NOT TRUE. I am an NICU nurse who saves babies that are smaller than the ones seen in the photos on this web site. I know that we are capable of saving babies that are 24 weeks and above. Several of the babies I have seen saved do not even weigh one pound. So don't kid yourself, please. I love the babies that I take care of, and I see that even the one pounders (could fit in your hand) have their own distinct personalities. True I cannot hear them cry @ 24 weeks because they will be ventilated until they can breathe on their own but believe you me, they are 100% fighters to the end. They will move there faces and open their mouths around their tubes to cry when disturbed or pierced with needles for IV lines and heel sticks for lab work.They definetly 100% know pain!!!! The have feeling in their intire bodies, they fight when in pain. These babies will fight and push and kick while having there tiny diapers changed. The saddest thing about it is that most of the babies I saw in the pictures on this web site could have lived easily and most of them without any help from ventilators or breathing machines. So many people fight each day to have children, please let one love yours if you can't.

DO ANGELS DREAM? For my angel baby, an innocent victim of abortion. I love you.
In heaven, one mystery remains. Do angels dream? Lying in Jesus' arms, Can you see my face? Do your hands reach out for mine? Do you, my angel, dream? My head holds so many thoughts, Things I would say to you. When we meet again, Will you see our family picture, Wondering why you aren't there? I know you're with the Father, the perfect family, the Holy Trinity. All I have is this agony. God forgave me, but have you? When I sleep I pray to dream. I hope you'll meet me there. My child again, if only for a moment. I'll wake with the sun, Crying for you until night falls again. Please, my precious angel, dream for me.

i am a full time college student, i was only dating my now husband when i found out i was pregnant at 18. the thought of abortion never crossed my mind. i had done several reports on abortions and found the horrible truths behind it. i will admit it is a difficult task to care for a child, but i am telling you financially and emotionally, you will find a way. i look at my daughter who eyes sparkle and she giggles at me and it makes all my problems just go away. the way her face lights up when she sees me, makes me realize that this is what life is all about. if u are scared...i guarantee, that you can make it through all the hard times, and besides....God only deals you what he knows you can handle. since the birth of my baby, my life has never felt this complete....TRUST ME! HE/SHE IS WORTH A CHANCE.

I was a runaway from an abusive home. Stereo-typical if you really think about it. I was living with my boyfriend and about to turn 18. Boy, 18..it seems so very long ago. I'm 29 years old now and the mother of two wonderful children. But back then, I was young. Anyway, you know the story, I got pregnant right after my 18th birthday. And at first I was absolutely determined to have this baby. With or without the support of it's father. A few nights later about 7 of his friends, male and female, showed up at his door saying it wasn't his baby. Now mind you, these we people that I thought were my friends too. He didn't believe them but they persuaded him to "force" me to get "rid of it". We fought for 3 days straight. He made an appointment at Planned Parenthood and took me the next day. I was already far enough along to "qualify" for an abortion. By then I believe I was in a state of shock. I remember that morning begging him in the parking lot to not make me do this. He said this is what has to be done. I didn't care about losing him, but I didn't know what else to do. I wasn't speaking to my mother at the time and no one else to turn to. So I went in. They did an ultrasound, gave me some birth control pills to take when I got my period again and then had me take a couple of valium. By the time the pills kicked in, I couldn't even think straight. They took me into the exam room after herding me and about 12 other women together into a separate room. Laid me down and told me to relax. I remember hearing the girl in the room next to me screaming, "Get it out! Get it out!" and sobbing. They started the dilation procedure, forcing my cervix open with great pain I might add, then came that awful sound of the suction machine. It's a sound that I will never forget as long as I live. When it was all over, they sat me up, gave me a pad and put me in the holding area with the other women. Please reconsider. I couldn't live with mys

Babies are precious & to take even one life is wrong. I now have 2 girls & I couldn't imagine life without them. Think about it; is your life really more important than that of the baby growing inside you? Babies are blessings and every one deserves a chance...whether they can tell you or not!

First let me tell you that I read though the other posts & have cried about so many of them.There are so many heroes out there.Let me also say that if I could find my husband's biological mother I would hug her & say "THANK YOU!"It is because she chose so many years ago to give up her son for adoption instead of aborting him he was placed with a great family who loves him very much & he is also a great husband & now a dad.This is the alternative to abortion.By her making the right choice he was able to come into my life & change it for the best, give me a life that I would have never known without him & have a child of his own.She is a hero to me if she ever finds out or not.
Secondly our story is that we were only married for 6 months when I found out that I was pregnant.I had an EPT test in one hand & a pack of smokes in the other.The test came out positive & I hurled the pack away & from this day have been smoke free for over a year now.See though just so small she had already empowered me with the want to quit smoking when I had been trying to quit for a years.She was born early & with a heart problem.In fact we will be going to Sick Kids hospital for her open heart surgery on Jul31 so any prayers that people can send would be appreciated.
Third is that I have known someone who had an abortion.She was with a great guy(i don't think he was happy about it) & they were looking forward to marriage.After the abortion she totally changed.Soon the relationship ended & now she has no association with people (except family & I am not sure if they know)prior to the abortion. She is now a bitter person who is hurting not only herself but others too.
Please if you are pregnant & do not want to raise the child give him/her up for adoption.You may never know one day someone would love to come to you,give you a hug & say "THANK YOU" because the child you gave up so many years ago may be that persons husband or wife...And that would make you a hero in thier eyes.

dear reader,
I am 40 now and my boy is 17 months old. I wanted to abort due our relationship has drifted apart and we are going to divorce soon...we never really had proper sex due to our long distance relationship. He lived in USA I in the Asia. He has not supported the child since birth but Our Heavenly Father has taken care of the birds and the bees...what more a baby with a soul...I was told clearly in church one day just before my appointment with the doctor to abort the baby to raise the next generation of God...and to named my son, David and he is such a blessing in my life and I am very happy to have him. He adores all christian songs and music and he could say 'UP' to ask us to stand up and worship God with him. I am so proud of him when I am in church with David as he Worship and dance before the Lord...he even know how to Lay hands and pray for us when I said the grandpa leg is in pain...he would lay hand and command pain to go away... All PRAISES AND GLORY TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST who guided me thru all these...At age 40 now I want to live to see my next generation grow....Thank God for a email friend which i also wrote to when I was having this crisis and her name was Karen Macfflin..which I now lost contact with....Praise God for social worker like her to encourage me to lived by the day then...

I was dating a guy when I was 16 and he was 23. After dating for only about 6 months we broke up but we were still sleeping together. Of course after we break up, I get pregnant. When I told him, he just sat there so I knew he would soon be leaving me because he already had another girlfriend (who would also turn out to be pregnant just 2 and a halfs months after me). Sure enough, he called me when I was 2 months pregnant and told me he never wanted to see me or talk to me again. Realizing he wasn't coming back I was faced with a difficult decision, "What do I do with this baby?" I was only 17 at this time. After talking to my mom I decided I would keep my son because I WANTED to. I can never thank GOD or my wonderful mother (God rest her soul) enough for helping me keep my son. I graduated mid-term with a 3.8 gpa and even went to college at night and received my associates degree while working days doing retail. And you know what? Everything worked out wonderfully. I am now married to a wonderful man (yes there are some great men out there!) who loves my son just as his own and we even have a daughter now too! I am also blessed because I even get to stay at home with my children to take care of them and love them. If things would not have worked out for me, I believe I would have loved my son enough just from the first moment I saw him to either let someone help me or give him to a family that would give him the love and items he needed. There is nothing sad about adoption, it is a beatiful thing! You get to keep YOUR beatiful baby alive and make another family so happy! Please don't kill your baby because things are rough...there are many things that I left out of this story and I can be sure there aren't too many cases that could be much worse than mine. Jenny

I just wanted to share my experience with abortion to those considering it. I had a abortion almost 7 years ago. Since then my life has been hell filled with guilt and shame. Not one day goes by that I don't think what could have been if I wasn't so weak. When I found out I was pregnant I was estatic. My boyfriend and I were together for 2 years and it felt right. I wasn't your typical teenager, out partying and stuff so the responsibility of a baby didn't overwhelm me at all. Although I was happy, my boyfriend was not. I am a very smart girl but become stupid and naive in the name of "love". He expressed concern about my future and how having a baby would make my dreams out of reach. He suggested an abortion. Me being stupid figured that he loved me and was looking out for our best interests. On the day of the abortion he dropped me off at the clinic and drove off. There I was, alone and scared and deep inside not wanting to go through with it. When the procedure was being performed the nurse notified me that I wasn't pregnant no more. I began to sob uncontrolably. When I left the clinic, my boyfriend picked me up about 1/2hour later. We drove around and he was very somber. I cried and cried till he dropped me off at home. That night for the first time in my life I went out and got drunk. To make matters worse two nights after the abortion my parents (whom had no idea) began to watch the movie 9 months. I went to the bathroom and collapsed crying. This was 7 years ago and not much has changed. I got rid of the boyfriend and began dating another guy (a much less selfish guy). I had a void in my life and realized that the void was a need for a baby, so we began to try. I am happy to anounce that I now have two of the most beautiful children I have ever seen. They are my world and my reason for everything I do. When my youngest was 1 1/2 I went back to school to fulfill my dream of becoming a nurse. I am still depressed over the poor judgement to have a abortio

I am a single mother of 3 the age of 24 and i just recently got out of a 4 year relationship (not my kids father). To find my self dateing again and then a month later becoming pregnant with this baby that i carry now. when I found out.I did'nt know how to feel what to feel I was lost. All types of emotions ran through me. I didn't know how to tell my boyfriend It was like being pregnant for the first time all over again. So I finally got my self together and told him he really didn't respond. we walked aruond the house not speaking for 2 days and then finally I brought it up again. Thats when he said, I don't know what to say I don't know what to think I don't know if I can be there for you. I just layed there shocked. wordless I knew @ the time he was married and he already had a son and i didn't wanna come between that. Even though his wife lives in another state. i did'nt want him to feel trapped. and besides all that I had 3 kids already that need me My youngest 4 years old and ready to start school this year in august (with is when i am due) I just couldn't see going through this it put a really bad strain on my relationship. We separated for 3 weeks and I felt so alone. I felt as if abortion was the only was to make thinks go to normal but I also knew that it was wrong in Gods eyes.I have a great deal of faith in our heavenly father. and I know that he makes no mistakes.So I preyed and asked for help and just asked him to guide me.So before I made any decisions I waited upon the lord.And he showed me just what I was to do.with the answer he gave me I got a peace of mind. Not in my time but in his time.He brought my relationship back and this time it was better then before(Thank You Lord). I have a very supportive Boyfriend. And A happy and peaceful family.We so await the day that we are bless with a new member in the family.Some time in August.Everytime I feel our little one move around in there I thank the Lord.

I found out that I was pregnant with my son at age 15. My mother had died a month earlier, so this could not have occurred at a worse time. My father and grandfather begged me to have an abortion and move on with my life. I refused and my father kicked me out. I had Jonathon Micheal Feb. 13, 1995. My father adores him.
I found out I was pregnant with my daughter when I was 20. Her father is married and offered instantly to pay for the abortion. I quickly let him know that the only reason that I told him I was pregnant was because he was the father and I felt he had a right to know. I gave birth to Destiny Gail, Jan. 18, 2000.
I love my children and would give nothing for them. I feel that I got pregnant for a reason. Although premarital sex is wrong, God would not have allowed me to conceive if He did not want me to have a child or want this person in the world. We are happy and their fathers are not involved in their lives...and we are just fine. I go to school full time and work full time and still stay involved heavily in my children's lives. Children are a blessing from God...don't take that privilege (and it is a privilege) lightly.

God is the giver of life and if you have doubts about becoming a parent you are doubting the faithfulness of the Lord Jesus christ. He will not leave you or forsake you! REGARDLESS of how you became pregnant.The prophet Jerimiah states in the bible that,"before you were formed in your mothers womb the father(God)knew you".Please think this through life and death are in your hands!

When I was 19 I got pregnant. I was so excited because I had always wanted to get married and start my own family. I was in college at the time and my boyfriend had wanted to get married as well, but then as our relationship progressed, he began to avoid responsibilities such as getting a job and choosing his friends over me. I realized that he really was not the one that God had picked out for me and I had made such a huge mistake of trying to make things work. I was in despair and soon found myself thinking about getting an abortion, even though I had wanted to have a family. Since things weren't working out, I wasn't sure I wanted to have this baby anymore, and I wasn't sure that I wanted to give up certain things in my life to have a child. I thought that if I got an abortion it would solve everything and I wouldn't have to tell anyone. I wasn't sure what to do, but I knew that an abortion was wrong and wouldn't solve my problems. It was very scary. It had turned into a big mess, and I didn't know how to fix it. I told my sister first that I was pregnant and then I told my parents. I knew that they would be upset, but they had to know-somehow I just thought that I needed to tell them. I felt so awkward-I was pregnant-but then I was looking at baby clothes and toys and I began going to church, and I realized that having a baby is such a blessing. I went home and during the pregnancy, God provided me with friends to support me through the pregnancy and he gave me a job where I work with Christian people and then he gave me a beautiful healthy baby girl named Becca! I am now 20 years old and am now taking a college course and although it is difficult, I will still be able to accomplish all my dreams, and I trust that God will bring me a wonderful husband to complete our family when the time is right. I am so glad that I had my wonderful baby. Before I had Becca I never took a stand on abortion, but now I am definitely pro-life!!! Please don't kill your baby

Dear Child,
I was where you are now. I carried my child and grieved for her, and yes, I loved her. I was not able to reach out to anyone who could help me. I carried her a week. It took a very long time (16 years), but I discovered forgiveness and a new life through Jesus. I have two beautiful children. It is possible through Christ to overcome, but the consequences will be for life(regret, memories, longing). If you still have a choice, CHOOSE LIFE. The stress of the situation will last only for a little while. If you have gone through abortion, God is waiting for you to call out to Him -"Abba! Father!" Don't wait like I did-Run to your Heavenly Father!!! He will never leave you or forsake you! If you would like me to pray for you, please contact me-Rhonda M.

My testimony is for the pain and suffering that my sister went through because she was forced by our parents to abort her baby as to not give the family a "bad" name. As a result she was denied the right to be a loving mother, I was denied the right to be a loving aunt. I have defended my sister throughout our lifetime. Many out there do not realize how devastating it is for a pregnant teen with abusive parents. We suffered many things in our early childhood, but nothing compares to the loss of a child. I pray for parents of pregnant teens that they will learn to lean on God and support their daughter or son facing an unexpected pregnancy. Abortion IS NOT the answer. It is the beginning of a hellish path that can take years to overcome. Please pray before you force your daughter or son to choose abortion to destroy possibly the ONLY grandbaby you will ever have.

I had an abortion in the beginning of my senior year of high school. I went to Planned Parenthood and was told about abortion, not life. I have since asked for forgiveness and know that God is gracious. He has given me 3 wonderful boys. I am so thankful for the Crisis Centers and all of the other people who are helping girls of all ages to choose life. Maybe if someone would have allowed me to hear my baby's heart beat, the outcome would have been different. For now I just pray for all those who are thinking of abortion to choose life, if not for yourself to raise, then someone else.

I was 17 when I was raped. I had just recently lost my virginity so when it came about that I was pregnant i assumed that the father was my boyfriend.He insisted on "getting rid of it".I went to the clinic,paid my "dues", put on some type of drug,lead to this cold room, told to take my clothes off then some caluse doctor came in inserted this thing into me,and coldly told me that I had probably the same size things in there before when I complained of it being painful.When I threw a fit he removed the contraption and left the room for me to "calm" down.(let the drug take affect) Laying there is when I decided that if God wouldn't have thought for some reason I needed this child He would have never given him to me. I got up got dressed and walked out of the building. That was the best decision I could have made in my life,even after I found out that my Son was a child of rape. My son,now 12yrs old, saved my life in more ways than one. I thank God everyday for my Son. Icant imagine life without him or his 2 sisters now.. after looking at the pics on the website I am horrified with the thought of what I almost did to MY child, my sweet innocent baby..... Plz feel free to write if you need someone to talk to...

THIS TESTIMONY IS NOT ABOUT ME BUT RATHER ABOUT MY MOTHER WHO IS DECEASED SINCE 1989..ON HER DEATH BED SHE TOLD ME(RATHER CONFESSED)ABOUT THE ABORTION THAT ALMOST KILLED HER WHEN THEY WERE ILLEGAL AND PERFORMED IN DARK BACK ALLEYS OR IN NASTY HOTEL ROOMS ON A CASH BASIS ONLY. MY MOM WAS 20 WHEN SHE HAD THIS PROCEDURE DONE...THEY USED A THING CALLED "SLIPPERY ELM", WHICH IS ACTUALLY THE BRANCH OF AN ELM TREE WITH THE BARK REMOVED, WHICH LEAVES IT VERY SLIPPERY. THEY THEN TAKE A KNIFE AND SHARPEN A VERY SHARP POINT ON THIS BRANCH WHICH IS THEN INSERTED INTO THE WOMB AND "POKED" UNTIL PROFOUND BLEEDING OCCURS. THE "DR" THEN PULLS THE FETUS OUT, PACKS THE WOMAN WITH GAUZE AND COTTON AND TELLS HER TO STAY OFF HER FEET FOR 3 DAYS AND TO COME AND MEET HIM AGAIN IN A WEEK, SAME PLACE AND SAME TIME. ALL THIS FOR THE BARGAIN PRICE OF $150..WELL, MY MOM WAS ONLY ABOUT 3 WEEKS PREGNANT WHEN HE ABORTED HER, BUT SHE STARTED TO HEMORAGE AND ALMOST BLED TO DEATH.FORTUNATELY A NEIGHBOR FOUND HER OUTSIDE IN A HEAP AND CALLED AN AMBULANCE..I NEVER KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT ANY OF THIS UNTIL MY MOM WAS ON HER DEATH BED WITH CANCER AND SAID SHE JUST HAD TO GET IT OFF HER CHEST AND DID I THINK GOD WOULD FORGIVE HER FOR THE TERRIBLE THING SHE HAD DONE...I TOLD HER OF COURSE HE WOULD, AND IT WAS SUCH A RELIEF TO HER. SHE HAD CARRIED THIS TERRIBLE BURDEN WITH HER ALL OF THESE YEARS...NO ONE HAD KNOWN UNTIL THAT DAY...HER REASONS WERE THAT SHE HAD HAD MY SISTER, WHO DIED A COUPLE DAYS AFTER BIRTH FROM A BAD HEART, THEN GOT PREGNANT WITH ME, 1 YEAR LATER MY BROTHER AND 1 YEAR LATER THE BABY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. IT SEEMS THAT MY FATHER WAS AT THAT TIME A DRUNKARD WHO BEAT HER AND SHE JUST COULDN'TBRING ANYMORE CHILDREN INTO THE WORLD...SHE THOUGHT IT WAS HER ONLY ANSWER BECAUSE A "NURSE" AT THE CLINIC TOLD HER THAT...PRAISE GOD FOR FORGIVENESS CAUSE MY MOM WENT HOME GUILT FREE, BUTWHAT ABOUT ALL THE GIRLS WHO AREN'T GUILT FREE....THESE PICTURES ARE SO HORRIFIC I CAN'T IMAGINE DOING ANY

I had my first child when I was 18...I found out 8 months later that I was pregnant again. I was petrified. Many things led me to believe that getting an abortion was the best way for me to go. My husband did not agree but let me go. I tell you what I do believe that it was the worst experience of my life. I got there and they did a sonogram, and to be honest that is when I decided that I could not go through with it. I took some relaxers and even made it to the table, where I lost it. There were bottles on the floor filled with blood that I can only quess were fetuses. I had the most beautiful little girl. And to this day I cry when I think about what I almost did to her. I dont think that I will ever get over the fact that I almost killed her. Now 6 years later I am now 12 weeks pregnant. It was also a surprise, and to my shock, I am questioned constantly about why I am keeping it. People think that abortion is so easy, if it was they would not be here.

I was 18 and unmarried but when I found out I cried, I'm not sure if it was a happy cry or a sad cry but i cried. I went to the doctor and suprisingly my doctor assumed that I wanted to abort her and called it "THIS PREGNANCY" I was furious and changed doctors. 1 month later I got married and 8 months after that I gave birth to the most beautiful, caring, sensitive, sweet funloving child God could have ever given me.I am so thankful that God gifted me with her. Sometimes we have no money, but if I trust God he never sends me begging for bread. My daughter EMILY is now 1 and a half and I can't immagine letting her tiny body be wasted on my shallow selfishness. If you can make a baby you can find a way to take care of him or her. Or there are plenty of families that would love to ad him or her to their loving families. I know I would gladly.
God bless you all, in Jesus holy name.

I am born again believer, I had a child out of wedlock and had to make a choice, do I cover my sin by another greater sin or do I accept the will of God?..the need to cover my sin was great,but my love of God was greater...I couldn't consider the choice of abortion..it is murder!...My son was born autistic..gee, thanks god?..Yes! Thank God for this child for even with his autism, God has used this baby boy to His Glory..my son was the first ever autistic child to go through our school system..His programming would be the foundation for other kids entering the system! God also used this baby boy to have me change my field of study..I now work as a developmental trainer in the disability field and I now advocate for all children born with disability!..through this one child...what God hath wrought!...and to even think of considering abortion...no way! and lose out on the best thing that ever happened to me.?..If you are faced with the dilema as I was...I can tell you this...trust Jesus ...He can take a bad situation and turn it for good! don't kill your baby...what if it is the next Albert Einstien...?..you gonna miss out on a great adventure, but if your circumstances leave you no leeway, please?...give your child up for adoption...it is the test of true love for a mother to give her child away for a better life...my niece chose to give up her child....she is only 16..but made the toughest choice of her young life. she gave her child life..by its being born and by having loving parnets who can provide for it. God is so good! Choices we get, some good ,some bad, the parents of the babies in these photos made a bad choice...but you don't have to follow their bad example..look real hard at these photos..for that is what will happen to the child in side you if you make the wrong choice.

I was 17 a senior in high school and strong plans to head off to college in the fall. It was New Years Eve of 1997 when I found out I was pregnant. My then boyfriend(now husband) sat down and told my parents, my fathers biggest concern was whether or not I would finish high school. I was able to reassure him that I would. I graduated in June and was married a week later. After 3days of labor, and a terrible c section, our son was born on Sept.9,1998. He was born with severe birth defects that required surgery, he was airlifed to a hospital 6 hrs from where I gave birth. My husband and mother drove to be with him while I had to stay behind to heal from surgery. After waiting 4 long days, I was finally reunited with my son, seeing the stitches on his back, made my cry, but also made me happy, he was here and he was going to be ok. I became pregnant again in July of 2000, I gave birth to another baby boy in March 2001, who also had birth defects, he was air lifted out to another town and I again had to stay behind to recover. I want girls who are in question to know that there are people out there who care, even if they don't know you. I boys are here today because they are supposed to be. However my vote still remains prochoice, for reasons that I would be happy to share with you via email. God only hands you what you can take, no more, no less. God gave me two boys with defects of which you would never know today, he gave me two knowing that we were strong enough to handle it, and taking that burden from someone else who may have not been as strong.

You should not have an abortion just because you can not support the child, there are much better solutions such as giving the baby up for adoption. I will never have an abortion even if I die after I give birth because I've lived my life I want my baby to live a life of his or her own.

I was 21 years old with a 2 and 3 year old. I was single as unstable as it gets. Living of welfare completely. I had just left an abusive, worthless,man that never worked and hardly ever even came home. Within a week or two I found out that I was pregnant. This was the last thing I needed or wanted I hated the babies father completely. I did not want another one of his children.Abortion was the perfect solution however by the time I got up the nerve and the money I was to far along only recently did I hear of partial birth abortion.I decided the next alternative was adoption. I just knew I would never really love this baby. So I set it up so that my older sister could adopt the baby. Well I had the baby she was beautifull.I feel in love instantly. I took her home with me breastfeed for the first time which was a miraculous thing.When she was three months old I met an amazing man thatloves and treats my three onery kids as his own my daughter is now two years oldin two weeks. And to think I was going to kill her breaks my heart she is so good and so smart.And I am currently 5 monthes pregnant 16 weeks to be exact with my husbands baby I have felt about 3 kicks, I have seen the baby in an ultrasound and the baby was sucking it's thumb. And to think that at this point I could put that life to an end becouse of my own selfishness is almost more than I can bear.Even if I don't want the baby there are wonderful ppl out there that can'thave a baby and are waiting to be able to adopt. my sister is still waiting and my brother in law and his wife want one too but becouse of teticular cancer he is now sterile.My 16 week old fetus has been alive since 2 weeks after conception when it devlops a haertbeat.There is no need in such a violent death these babies recieve through partial birth abortion.Please contact me I will bend over backwards to help you through don't do something you will regret before you talk to someone who cares.god bless you all may the holy spirit be wi th you.

My oldest child was conceived not long after I turned 15. I never believed in abortion but my boyfriends mother suggested abortion. I said absolutely not. I don't have any pictures of her when she was a baby on my computer but here is one of her now. 8 1/2 years later. Please think this through. There are many people out there that want a baby and can't have one. I know have 3 and wouldn't change it for anything in the world!!!!

Having my baby was the best thing ever. For the fathers out there that think giving up on the child is a good thing, you are dead wrong! My son lives with me and no longer with his mother. My son is now 5 and he is SO much fun. We play video games together, ride bikes and skateboards, eat pizza, tell jokes. He's like my best friend. It has been rough at times, but I found the will to finish high school, get a good paying job, and stay off of welfare and government aid. We now have an apartment together and he goes to preschool and is so smart. Partial birth abortion (and abortion in general) is disgusting! Little hands, feet, and faces pulled from the womb is WRONG!

I am a paralegal who handles many adoption cases. The people I come in contact with wanted children very much and choose to adopt. If you are pregnant and cannot support a child right now or you just are not ready to be a mother, please think about putting your child up for adoption instead of having an abortion. There are plenty of loving families who are eager to adopt children. You are not alone! There are always people you can call on to help you. One of the adoption agencies we work with is in Richmond, Virginia. Their name is LDS Family Services and their number is (804)743-0727. Please consider the life of your unborn child! Your baby could grow up to do something really wonderful in this world and he or she deserves that chance.

I found out at sixteen. I was five months pregnant and his mom and him wanted me to have an abortion. They wanted me to kill my baby because of there ignorance and selfishness.He had someone else pregnant at the same time.They were happy about that baby. I woke up and realized I had to keep my baby when the doctor refused to do the procedure because my baby was so big .He referred me to someone else. I kept my baby and she is the most greatest thing in my life. She makes me so happy . She is there for me when no one else is. She will always be my daughter and I'll always be her mommy.I'm so glad she is here. I would not be able to live with myself if I had gone through with it. Children are blessings no matter what the circumstances are.

I had just come out of five year relationship and had been seeing someone (whom is now my husband) for some time when I found out I was pregnant. Already having two children and not very stable I found myself very confused with what to do. I told my boyfriend and can remember sitting down at the kitchen table crying because I did not want to have another baby (already having two children by two other men). Some people tried to talk me into having an abortion, but I knew I could never live with myself if I did that. Children do not ask to be concieved, especially by iresponsible people. And we can't hear them ask to be born, unless we listen to out hearts. My daughter is now three weeks old and every time I look at her I thank god that I heard her through my heart. Her father and I are married and have been almost a year now. He's there for her, me and my other two children. Please listen to your heart and you will hear thier voice, they deserve a chance too.

My husband and I want very much to have a child, we live in a beautiful four bedroom house in a great community in Central Illinois. We want a child very much but cannot have a baby now. There are so many of us who want to adopt, but there is a long waiting list or we are past the age to adopt. Consider this: As anguished as you are about this pregnancy, there are women out there who are just as anguished to have that child as there own.
For you, having a child means giving up your freedom.
To me, having that same child would grant a whole new freedom.
To you, having this child means embarrassment and being an outcast, to me not having a child means embarrassment and being an outcast.
Please, make this sacrifice for another human being, (your baby), and let him live, and you will always be a hero. You can stand proud at saving the life of a child.

I am a single mother of a 6yo. one year ago i became pregnant as planned but the father of the baby decided that he no longer wanted this. I decided not to have an abortion but i became sick, confused, angry & out of control & had a termination at 12 weeks. I felt as though i could not cope again. I think i cried every day after that termination for the terrible loss & the guilt i felt of taking away that life. I regreted the termination terribly & realised my feelings in early pregnancy were not stable enough to make such a decision. One year later I am 6 months pregnant & again alone, and i went through that emotional time again in the beginning, but i am now so glad when i feel my baby kick & see my belly growing that i preserved this life as everything is clearer in my mind. I have a beautiful 6yo daughter and a baby boy on the way. I guess i'll never have loads of money or support, but my life wouldn't be the same without these beautiful children. Children are beautiful in any shape or form & once you have them, you'd never send them back not in a million years. You need to hold onto that thought through your uncertainty. You will be rewarded.

The night that my daughter was concieved, I told her father, Oh well, there is always abortion. God knows me, and He knew me back then. Five months later, I discussed adoption with my married friend. A month later, (still in denial) I felt her kicking me. I didn't tell my parents I was pregnant untill I was eight months along. My father didn't speak to me for two whole weeks, but in the end, they were supportive every step of the way. I was 17 when I had Abigail. I was a child myself, I didn't know what or how, I didn't even want kids. Her name, Abigail because she will some day be sucessful at whatever she does, her middle name, Grace, because children are gifts from God, they are so precious and innocent. She is now four years old, and I cry when ever I think about how much I hated her before she was born, but now, may God help the person who tries to take her away from me. She is my everything. Life wouldn't be complete without her, I am who I am, because of her.

This will be my last pregnancy - 2 children is what we want to complete our family. I'm hoping for a girl this time. It was horrifying to see the photos on this site. Please always remember if you are considering murdering your own child, that there are other options. Even at 25 when I got preg for the 1st time, it was scary thinking of losing my freedom like not going out every weekend, etc... Still there was nothing I wanted more. Now, I am lucky to get out once every couple of months, and I wouldn't trade my family for anything. So many people would take such great care of your child. If someone told me they were considering abortion I would beg them to let me raise their baby.

I was 16 when i had my baby. I was young! At the moment i'm 17, if im 17 and many people having aborotions are older! You can have a baby and handle 'em.. Don't do that to the baby. My son means the world to me! He is so cute, and i love him to death.. Even though i was only 16, never once did i think about aborotion... Its just wrong.. if anyone needs to talk feel free to email me.. Lieta

I went to have one when i got in the waiting room. I started to cry non stop. I knew it was wrong I just knew. i found out I was a little over the first trimester at my exam. They gave me pamplets and told me I would have to go to another county for the second trimester abortion. I had alot of thinking to do that day. I decided against it after reading what was going to happen to the baby in the procedure, oh btw there was a man in front of the clinic he is there every day he can be i think handing out pamplets asking young women in a loving way to consider other options and asking them to pray about it.

I was only 19 years old when I found out I was pregnant with my second child,my first son was only a year old.Motherhood meant everything to me,My partner was very abusive and controlled everything in my life.Less than a month into my 2nd pregnancy I discovered that I had chicken pox,my partner wanted me to have an abortion.I was very scared and confused,I was very intimidated by him, I worried about the baby growing inside me would it be normal,(deaf,blind deformed or retarded).My partner made an appointment for me to have an abortion.It was a sunny Saturday morning,I had a mid morning appointment,on route to the clinic I was very upset and afraid,I knew I loved this baby no matter what,It was a god given gift to me,but I was scared to stand up to my partner and I knew what I was about to do was wrong.By the grace of God the anti abortion group was picketing at the clinic that morning and they are the reason I have a very handsome intelligent athletic 14 year old son who is everything and more that I thought he would never be I will always be grateful for the life that they helped give my child, without them I know he would not be here today.They gave me the courage to stand up to my partner and to stand up for my child.I went on to have 2 more children 4 in all at the young age of 23.If anyone out there is considering abortion please understand that no matter what your situation age,financial,rape, imperfect baby or what ever your reason, a life is a life your baby's live is your life love is life,life is love, don't make a mistake the Lord dose not make mistakes he has plans for your child let your baby be part of his plan.

I was 17 when I first found out that I was pregnant, and I was very scared. I had just started having sex and I made the decision to have an abrtion. Although it wasn't an easy decision, I went through with it. I had never seen pictures of abortion or really knew what was happening to me while I was under anasthesia, so I was very detached from the reality of it all. When I was nineteen I became pregnant again, and I had promised myself that I would never have another abortion... but the father of my baby said that he would leave and wouldn't take care of the baby if I decided to have it. I had never met my Dad before and I didn't want that for my baby so once again I had another abortion. I was so upset and distraught afterwards. I had that same feeling of emptiness when I woke up, and was very angry with myself for having been in the situation again. Then I turned 20 and low and behold I became pregnant again. I was being careless and subconciously I also always wanted to be pregnant and actually go through with my pregnancy. However, I was afraid. Afraid of being a mother, of the responsibility, and I had yet another abortion. My story is sad, horrific, and disturbing I know, but I am sharing this because I know that I am not part of a minority of young women but rather a majority who don't understand the real risks and the serious of this procedure. We as women also don't fully understand the power of our bodies and the miracle of life. Which is why I went through with three abortions. I am now 6 months pregnant, and I am very happy. I was still scared but there was just no way that I could ever lay on that table again. I don't judge anyone and I hope that you are not judging me right now. God is my judge and I will answer to him when that day comes. However, I hope that anyone that is reading this understands that if you are pregnant you have been blessed. This baby may be what you need to get your life on the right track, even though

I decided to have my baby and let a mother and father who could support her and take care of her the way I wanted too. I got to name the baby and I get to see her once a year on her birthday. I'll be 21 this October, and she was born on December 21. She's kind of like my christmas miracle. I am blessed to have a couple of loving christian adults who love my daughter as their own. They graciously let me see her and spend the afternoon with her, which is something that by law, they are not required to do. Paige Brittany is a beautiful little girl and there is no way I could have even thought for a second that aborting this baby would have been the right thing to do.

I was 16 years old when I discovered I was going to have a baby. My husband (who was my boyfriend at the time) was frightened and told me I would ruin his life if I was to have the baby. I was scared to loose him and was convinced I would mess up his life so I went through with it at six weeks. Now at the age of 22 and a three year old, I think about what I did every day and wish I'd had more support for having the child. I had a hard time with it for a long time and it hurts me to see others not having support and feel they need to abort their child. After having my daughter my husband realized the joy of children and regrets to what he'd pressured me to do. My husband will visit this site so he can see what he didn't and others don't realize what abortion really is. How it is not just an easy way out.....

I am 28 years old and have 2 boys ages 3 and 7 to my loving husband. When I was 15 years old I had an abortion to a 22 year old man. Even at 15 I knew I didn't want to have an abortion but the pressure from my parents was overwelming. They didn't ask they told me what I was going to do. Now I know I had other choices. Other family and friends of my church that would have helped me. To this day I still think of my 12 year old son or daughter who never had a chance. If you think abortion is something you won't think of think again! It haunts me everyday of my life when I look at my precious boys! God please forgive me!

I am a Mother of two boys, one of which was not planed at all. With my first one I was dateing my now husbend for about 6 months when we found out, it was a surprise to us both but we were very happy. We got married when I was 3 months along. We then split up a year later. i started seeing this guy a few months later. I wound up pregnant for the second time but this time itwas not a very happy time for me. Alot of people were mad at me. My husbend was very disapointed in me and very hurt. But there was nothing I could do.I am not the kind of person who belives its right to just kill a baby just because it's not wanted. I look at my 2 year old and think to my self how can anybody do that.
Now I am 4 weeks away from having my second boy, my husbend and I are back together,and he plans to raise this child as his own. He and I are going to church every Sunday and we are doing very well. I am happy that I choose to keep my baby alive. And to all the women who are scared and pregnant just pray to GOD and have your baby. If you can't keep it give it to a woman who can't have children. KEEP GOD IN YOUR LIFE!

I had been trying to get pregnant with my husband for over a year. When we found out we were having twins, we felt God had heard our prayers. This was all natural and I thank God every day for those 2 miracles. Let me tell you, finding out I was having twins was a shock. Two cribs, two dressers...anyway this was not easy. We looked to God and he has provided. My husband and I have stable jobs, and we have family and friends that are more than willing to help out. I never once thought of changing what God had given us. Believe me, there are MANY MANY people out there that would give anything to support your child if you are unable.
When I look at the photos on this site, I'm appauled. Only the fact that those innocent children had not been born is what keeps these pictures from being murder scenes. Times are not always easy, but we as a nation will have to answer to these horrible acts of murder. All I can say is that I beg of you to choose another way.

I have now 3 gorgeous children my oldest is now 12 yrs old and she is such a blessing. When I had her she was born a preemie and that was at 32 wks she was only 2 lbs 10 ozs. I was scared to death that she wouldn't make it but on the third day after she was born I had peace and knew she would be ok.
Abortion is murder.... it's justified by law that's it there are many wonderful parents out there that would be able to love, nurture,provide, etc for a child that anyone can't afford or doesn't want. It would be the greatest thing anyone could ever do is adoption not abortion. If anyone is confused feel free to email me
I pray God's peace for you to make the right choice

I found out I was pregnant with my son one year, one month and two weeks ago. He was born February 20, a beautiful healthy baby who is my whole life. I knew it wasn't going to be easy but I also know God doesn't give us challenges we can't handle. Anyone considering an abortion should consider this: a friend of mine recently got pregnant with her second and unplanned child. She carried it to term and gave it up for adoption. She is the bravest person I know. She gave her child a chance at life instead of choosing the selfish way out. Please consider the affect an abortion will have on you, your family and YOUR BABY for the rest of your life. It doesn't ever go away. Babies don't get erased, no matter what abortionists want us to think. I look at my precious baby, a little perfect creature, and know that I would give my life for him. Please choose wisely. Your decision, no matter what it is, will last a lifetime.

Dear Reader,
When I found out that I was pregnant, it seemed like the worst possible news. My husband and I were having problems, and I felt that we could not possibly afford a baby. When I was 13 weeks pregnant I made an appointment at a clinic. The doctor started to perform the procedure, but I just couldn't go through with it. Although the doctor told me that I would probably lose the baby (as a result of the dilation that he did), I went on to have a healthy baby girl.. Every day I look at her and thank God that she is in my life. I love her more than I ever thought possible.

I was a cheerleader, honor roll student , a respected Christian, and as innocent as they get. I met a Christian friend, Scott, the summer of my junior year and even though we tried to be just friends, more came out of it. We became very close very quickly, and before we knew it we were having sex. Coming from Christian families, our parents wanted to kill us. They did everything in their power to keep us apart, and this made us want to be together even more. Eventually our family situations became so stressed that Scott and I ran away together. We lived at my uncle's house for a while, where I found out that I was pregnant. We both worked for his parents now, who had forgiven us. Christmas and the new year passed by and still we told no one. When I was 22 weeks along I was admitted to the hospital for of signs of hypertension. While we were there Scott called his parents and told them, and their reaction was "well we figured, because of the weight gain what now?" The next day we told my parents and their reaction was "PRAISE GOD!!" My parents LOVE children and they were so glad to hear that I had not aborted the baby. Everyone was now EXCITED and threw two showers for me. Scott and I got married three weeks ago and moved into a beautiful condo two days ago. I will be having this baby any day now. If you feel that your only way out is abortion, you are COMPLETELY wrong. You will be scorned by God for killing your innocent baby more so, than you could ever be for having a baby. If you feel you can't raise a child, there are many people waiting to adopt a baby like yours. I feel my baby kicking and wiggling in my belly , and I know that she is there for a reason and she's going to come out and be the person that God intended her to be. It is scary but what makes it easier is knowing that you are bringing a precious life into this world that ONLY YOU can bring and this baby loves you, as well as the creator of us all.

Hi. I was 16 when I found out that I was going to have a baby. The dad was 21. I knew I was going to have and keep my baby, but I didn't know how to explain the situation to my parents. I knew that I was going to cause them trememdous pain and heartache by telling them that their "good girl" wasn't so good after all. I was so scared. I waited weeks, night after night, waiting for the right time to tell them. Let me tell you, there was never a right time. I did finally tell my Mom who's reaction was "OH MY STARS!" I went out for a while to give her a chance to tell my Dad when he got home from work. My Dad was very calm, but he told me in no uncertain terms that if he could, he would make me have an abortion because this was going to ruin my life. The doctor my Mom had me go to was very unpleasant. He even thought an abortion was "the only way out". Even the lady at the clinic I went to shoved abortion literature at me even when I told her I didn't want it. Anyway, I did have my baby Joey, and my parents loved that grandson more than they ever imagined possible. They were inseparable. And Joey has grown up and now has two little boys of his own, ages 4 and 5 that he is raising as a single dad. I try to help as much as possible with his children, because I remember what it was like. But the really wonderful thing is that his oldest son, Addam spends so much time at my Mom's house keeping her company since my Dad passed away last year. Just think, if I had listened to all the well-meaning people 25 years ago, my grandchildren wouldn't be here now. I could have taken the "easy way out" I guess. But then, what the heck is easy about facing the fact day after day that you killed your defenseless baby before you even got to know him or her. How easy would it be to live the rest of your life wondering "what if?" and "how old would he be now?" as the years go by. I know that your life is your life and that your situation is as unique

Hi I know that you probably don't care about what I am saying because I haven't had a baby. But am 15 and I have raised my 3 siblings for the last 4 years and let me tell you the pictures I just saw are enough to make you think what if that baby was me. How desperate are you to be able to do such a thing. Babies have hearts, souls, and they live just like us. When you have no other option that seems available. find one because this is no choice, this is the most discusting thing I have ever seen. Babies have a right to live and know who they are and who there families are. If you find out that there is no way you can raise a little boy or girl, give it up for adoption there are a lot of families looking to adopt. give it a try but don't try abortion. Babies are to preshes to through away. Love Moriah

Please, mother's to be, think before you do this. I know at the time it seems like the only choice. Even if you find out that your baby has a defect, you should be proud that God thinks you have enough strength to bless you with an exceptional child. That is what it means. Not every one has that strength. The Lord decides who does and doesn't. Don't make that decision for Him. Also, if it is determined that your baby cannot survive outside of you, let it be. Led him/her die as the Lord wills, that way you won't suffer the feelings of guilt. You may think your baby will suffer less if you "take away its pain", but do u think it would feel good to you. To have needles shoved in your neck and a tube sucking out your brain? Just think about it please.
My prayers are with you

I HAD BEEN THROUGH A NUMBER OF BAD RELATIONSHIPS AND HAD JUST STARTED DATED MY BABY'S FATHER. WE WERE DATING FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT I WAS PREGNANT. BOTH OF US WEREN'T TOO SURE ON WHAT TO DO. WE DISCUSSED ABORTION, BECAUSE OF HIS FAMILIES BELIEFS IN NOT HAVING CHILDREN OUT OF WEDLOCK,NEITHER ONE OF US WAS READY FOR MARRIAGE. WE DECIDED TO HAVE THE BABY. HIS PARENTS STILL AREN'T VERY HAPPY ABOUT IT, BUT EVENTUALLY THEY WILL ADJUST. I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I HEARD MY BABY'S HEARTBEAT, I CRIED. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I EVEN CONTEMPLATED ABORTION. RIGHT NOW I AM CURRENTLY 35WEEKS PREGNANT AND CANT WAIT TO FINALLY SEE MY BABY. TO HOLD THIS LITTLE LIFE THAT WE CREATED.
IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT ABORTION THINK AGAIN.THERE IS A LIVING BEING INSIDE YOU. IT NEEDS A CHANCE TOO.

My husband and I had been married only a year when we began having problems and separated. He went back to Detroit and I stayed in North Carolina. About a month after he left I found out I was pregnant. A couple of friends recommended abortion. I was very angry at their suggestions and told them in no uncertain terms that abortion was not even an option. A family member called and told my husband about the pregnancy and he immediately came and took me back to Detroit with him. Unfortunately out marriage did not succede. I found out much too late that my husband was using heroin and when my son was eight months old I left Detroit and stayed with a family member for a short time. My husband and I were later divorced and he passed away from a heroin overdose in 1993. My son is now 22 years old and has been the greatest joy in my life. He has taught me so many things just by being his Mom. He is the greatest gift God has ever given me and I am so thankful he is in my life. I cannot imaging my life without him. I thank God for him every day. For the most part of his life it has been just he and I, but I never forget that God was always there watching over us.....even before I really knew who God was and accepted Him into my life, He was there. So I guess what I have to say to any woman whatever her age, is that you are not alone. God will and can get you through things you could never dream of handling on your own. Just trust Him to help you and remember....that little thing growing inside you is REAL LIFE.....a HUMAN BEING....a GIFT FROM GOD!!! So please don't destroy it!!!!! If you cannot keep your baby there are so many people that want to adopt. And if you DO keep your son or daughter, I would ask you to say a prayer of thanks when you see that first smile...when he or she gets that first tooth...when he takes that first step...say "THANK YOU GOD! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!"
God's Peace!

I was only 17 when i found out i pregnant.

My son is 2 and a half now and although its been a rough 2 years i wouldn't change a thing. His father and I are no longer together, as my mother predicted, but if it wasn't for my son, who's name is Christian, i wouldn't be the place that i am right now.

When I became pregnate with my son my long term boyfriend wanted an abortion. I had never really thought of it before but I told him no. He told me that it was to eirher kill the "thing" or lose him. I loved him very much and didn't want to lose him and considered it. I was calling to set up the appt. when a phone number cought my eye. It was a christian crisis center. The lady talked to me all night long. Both of us cried most of the time. When the call was over, I had decided to let go of the only one that was replaceable, HIM. I now have a beautiful 2 year old son to go with my wonderful 6 year old daughter. We may be doing it completely alone but we are the richest family alive because I chose life and love over death and hate. There is so much love between us that it blows me away at times. I shiver to think how close I almost came to losing the greatest joy of my life.

When I was 16 I had my first abortion. My mother was adament that we were not going to have any babies in her house. Needless to say, I found this to be a form of birth control and subsequently had five other abortions. Although I had the abortions, I was left feeling quite alone and empty. At age 20 I birthed a beautiful little girl. I had found Christ in my life and was not about to let this child go. I was even baptized when I was 7 months pregnant. I told the Pastor, "Take me and my baby and cover us both."
I am currently 34 years old with a forteen year old child. I've had two miscarriages and one live birth that resulted in death due to birth defects.
At this point in my life I want a child more than anything. I have a wonderful husband of twelve years and family and I desparately want to share the joy of raising children. Sometimes I wonder if all of the abortions I had may have caused me to have the problems I'm having now. It hurts me to know that God had actually given me my gifts (children) and I destroyed them as if they were replacable.
If abortion is an option you're looking to choose just give thought to the fact of who would you be if your parents had chosen to abort you?

I am writing this message because I'm having a really difficult time today. When I was younger, before I knew better, I had 3 abortions. Nobody knows--I've never told the truth. I thought it wouldn't bother me--a medical procedure. But today, I have children and the thoughts of what I did back then are haunting me. I pray for forgiveness everyday...I pray for my babies that I never held, never sang to, never gave birth to. I pray He forgives me. I pray you forgive me. I pray they forgive me. I was so selfish. I killed three babies--I'm a murderer. Please forgive me. April 22nd 2002 06:52:35 AM

Enter your Testimony to share with others .
When I found out I was pregnant for the first time I getting a divorce from my 1st husband(who wasn't my babies father), I was 19 living back with my grandparents. After my divorce I married my babies daddy. I am proud to say we've been married for 10 yrs. come June. Even if I had not married my husband I'm married to now I never even considered an abortion. Nor would I ever consider it. The way I see it is a baby is a gift from God.
In 1998 when I was pregnant with my 5th pregnancy we found out when I was 16 wks. along that we were having twins. When I was 20 wks. we found out I had polyhydriamniosis with twin to twin tranfusion. I had to go to Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville to see a specialist. After she'd done my ultrasound she had to give me my options which were
1.abort the pregnancy all together
2.abort the smaller of the two
3.do nothing and let one or both die
4.come evry week and let them try to drain the fluid off and help keep it balanced out.
My husband & I both agreed that abortion was totally out of the question. The dr. figured that was what I would say but she had to give me all of my options. Needless to say I delivered my sons on Sept. 9,1998 at 7:13 & 7:14 a.m.Tyler weighed 13 oz. & was 11 in. long, Skyler weighed 1 lb. & 3oz. & was 12 in. long. Tyler lived for 27 min. Skyler lived for 47 min. I was 24 wks. along when I had my sons. I have to live the death of my sons, I ask myself everyday if I'd done something different would my babies still be alive. I know that I did evrything I knew and thought I could do for them I did exactly as my dr. said and everything. I know that my babies are in heaven with my mom and my grandfather and aunt, that they are taking care of them until I see them. My other children know all about their brothers they visit their graves with us they even see their pictures. I have pictures of them in my home on display for people to see. Some people may think it's gross or disgustin

well i didn't have an abortion. and i don't know if this is going to have any affect on anyone but i hope it does. I was supposed to be an abortion. And my birth mom put me up for adoption. it was the best thing that she ever did. she had had 2 abortions before me. and she went in to have an abortion, but the day before a doctor had talked to her and she left. and he was the doctor who delivered me. i don't know who she is and i don't know why she chose to let me live. but she did. And i think sometimes if she even cares, or if she thinks about me. or if she didn't even care and went out and got pregnant again. But i thank God everyday for my parents, and that im alive, and i have had some health problem but no big deal. nothing that can't be fixed. and the doctors aren't even sure if her having abortions before i was born had anything to do with it. But they know thats why i was born with the cord wrapped around my neck 3 times. but by Gods grace im still alive. and all you ladies out there who are thinking about having abortions think twice, because you don't know they could have been the next president, or find a cure for aides. and your killing a wonderful miracle. and if you put if up for adoption you don't have to worry about it, and it can have a wonderful life. and have great parents that will love and care about the child. and yes that would be hard. and so would killing it. now would you like to think about how you killed it and live with that the rest of your life or think about what it looks like and if the child is happy and what there going to be when they grow up? hmm but i think putting it up for adoption is the best. and you sure don't hear anything on here about people encouraging abortion. all i have ever heard is that they wish they hadn't so what are you going to do?

I don't have some unique testimony nor did i ever abort, but long ago when my husband was an athiest and did not know better...
We wer dating at 18 years of age and I became pregnant..My husbands immediate reaction to me was Abort...I could not do it "I told him I was having the baby no matter what and He could stay or go but the abortion was not an option. We had a beautiful baby boy...named him Matthew...We had 2 more children both beautiful girls and my husband has since become a christian. I cried as i went through these photos...it breaks my heart. I want to say something to these women who are not sure on which way to go.....I may not be rich, but i have love, all you really need is someone to love you as well as the baby. If you are young...adoption is always an option. It is only 9 months of your life to give up and many people cannot even have children. I have heard it said "but I don't want to take a chance they may not be good to my child, or what if they end up in a bad home?" All i can say is how much worse can they be compaired to what abortion does to the child. I wish I could take all the unwanted children into my arms and just show them some compassion and some human love. If i can help anyone change they're mind my life has been of great acomplishment.

I wish they all could see this website with the pictures and stories just so they no how horrible and awful abortion really is.

I was raped when I was 14 years old and really didn't know I was pregnant until it was too late. My family supported me the whole way. I know that my mother had to have three surgeries to have me and she was so greatful. So I have to give my child the opportunity that my mother gave me. That was 5 years ago and my daughter is in a kindergarten class for the gifted and talented and she takes tap dancing. I am in my senior year of college and I have a boyfriend of 4 years that is my daughters daddy, he loves and supports both of us in everything we do! You can do anything if you put your mind to it.

All I can say is .. please stop and really think about the baby you are carrying. Abortion only leads to years of anguish, especially if you don't have Jesus in your heart. You are really alone then. Really think about what you are doing.. the pain is far greater to choose abortion, than to give birth. May God bless you.

I'm a 38 year old mother of 4 beautiful children now, but at 17 and a senior in high school I did not want a child. I had an abortion at 8 weeks and every day since then I think about that baby. She/he would be 20 years old now. I have to think about looks, school, etc. When I was 4 months pregnant with my twins girls, it was discovered that twin A had hydrochephus. Since I was so far along, a partial birth abortion was the only way to go about it. 50/50 chance that twin B would stay attached. They said the baby would most likely be born dead or if alive would never be able to function normally. Well, we decided to keep her and help other babies if the need was neccessary. Well again she was born at 4 weeks early, had hydrochephus, screamed her lungs out and came home with me 5 days later. She had a shunt inserted at 2 weeks old and only 4.8lbs. After 5 shunts and delevoping epilepsy, some learning disablities and being a mommy/daddy's girl, we would not trade her for nothing in this world. So please, follow your heart and don't have an abortion. Use adoption if you feel like you can't accept the child, please let it live. Thanks for reading my story.

I was scared when I was pregnant with my son because I just got out of High School and being 19 yrs. old I had dreams about goimg to college. Not once did abortion come into my mind. My family has helped me through everything. And when I pregnant with my daughter, sadly to say I thought of abortion and my brother and sister said they would help me.. I was living with friend and she didn't want me to keep my baby, she suggested abortion. My daughters biological father use to beat me, and thought that abortion would solve MY problem.. Until my brother told me that I was being selfish. And my gosh, he was SO right. Now, my daughter is 2 yrs. old. And s thank GOD to this day for giving me the strengh for my son and daughter. My son is austic. He's a big handful, but I thank GOD that he's strong and very healthy. And of course my daughter is, too. I don't think many women and young girls don't think of abortion and the conquences they may face when they do want kids down the raod. My friend had way to many abortions and to this day she can't have any. That is very sad, but I told her that she's not doing the right, think of the kids she's snuffed away, because she and kids father never thought of them.. May GOD guide those who think of this monster porcedure and get educated on this before they get it done.
Thank you.

I just wanted to say that know matter how young you are you can still do it. Abortion is not the way. People say well that its not even a baby because its not fully developed but if you really think about it nobody is fully developed until they grow old, as a baby they are constantly growing and developing. See they are just really delicate so they need to stay inside you and you take care of them just as you would take care of them after they are born. I had just turned 15 when I found out I was pregnant with my son and I chose to keep him. My son's father and I were no longer together but that was okay because I was still going to keep the baby cause I had made that decision to have sex so it was my responsibility to take care of what I did. My sons father loves his son and supports him still even though we are not together. My son is 3 years old now and we are doing very well. I don't know what I would do with out him. I love him very much. So please think about what you are doing, do not get an abortion. you will regret it if you do. Know matter what your situation is you can do it. God will not give you what you can not handle. May god bless you and guide you.

I was 17 years old when I found out about the pregnancy. My boyfriend, my husband now, was very confused,he was not sure he wanted a baby. He was injured and needed to have surgery. He took me to a clinic so I coul abort my baby. I cried day and night and asked him to please not to make me do it. After a while I made up my mind and told him that if he did not want the baby I was going to have it anyway. He changed his mind and we had a beautiful baby boy who is now 17. I thank God so much for helping me not to give up. He is such a wonderful child. I love him and my other two kids so much. My husband is a wonderful man of God who was just confused about the whole thing.

At 10 weeks I aborted my baby. Feelings I never knew I'd get started creeping in, when the procedure was all over my sorrow started. I felt empty, guilty, shame, confused. I fell from 135 lbs to a mere 100 lbs and was still losing weight steadily. My life was in turmoil, I felt suicidal.
You see, I had a plan and a baby was not in it, I also thought I couldn't get pregnant, to me this pregnancy was a wrong timing.
The abortion was a powerful shake up for me, I started changing my plans and for the first time started having second thoughts. I completely changed my plans. Suddenly I wanted back my baby and would do anything to to get him/her back. I cried to God night and day. I could not sleep, I could not eat. Five months later I was pregnant again and although not physically or emotionally ready for another baby, this time I was very grateful.
During the pregnancy I realized that something was still missing, I still felt empty. I had a difficult pregnancy but managed to pull through. I had a baby girl (whose photograph I've tried to post).
At the end of it all I have come to realize the thin thread between life and death and how final death is, how vulnerable a baby is, and how much they depend on us for their safety. It has been 2 years now since the abortion and I still yearn for my baby, If only I could turn back the hands of time. Just imagine, what could cause a woman to kill her baby for a reason that she thought was good, and immediately turn her life around in the opposite direction and immediately want one? That is how devasting abortion is.
Women their will always be someone who is willing to kill your baby, it depends on only you. Don't matter the circumstances, unless it threatens your life, think about the baby, the many options - adoption, seeking help through the print or electronic media etc. A baby doesn't have to ruin you life. Seek advise, seek counselling. Do not be quick to kill. Dont't think abortion is eas

First off my son was at 30 weeks gestation and weighed 2 pounds 12 ounces.He was 16 inches long and had no medical complications at all he ate well and had no breathing problems. He is now 14, an excellent student and he has had no learning disabilities whatsoever. Then when I was at 25 weeks gestation with my daughter I went into preclampsia and the baby had to be delivered via c-section. Kaylee weighed in at 1 pound 3&1/3 ounces twelve inches long. From day one she was able to breathe on her own, she was aided though with oxygen ( not on a ventilator )She steadily grew with the tube feedings. She had a bit of trouble with the bottle at first but at 15 weeks of age has overcome that problem.Keep in mind that she was 15 weeks early. We were able to take our little miracle home when she was 11 weeks old and if you could see how beautiful she is you would never give up hope that you can care for your child no matter what the circumstance. God bless you and keep you in His arms.His eye is on the sparrow.

I just want to help others to know that the pain and suffering after an abortion is real. What you may think is an easy thing to do, ends up being your worst nightmare. I have since prayed to God to forgive me, and now I try to help others not make the same mistake. I know my baby is in heaven. But knowing that is not an excuse to go through with an abortion. Give your baby life, the way God planned it. Your baby may one day be the one to find the cure for a disease that kills people. Don't abort, let your baby live. Enjoy your baby. Your baby is your gift from God.

I was scared when I first found out, and then he was too. I was going to take the easy way out by getting an abortion. But then I saw these photos here and saw that my baby was real. This site helped to change my mind so then I showed them to my boyfriend and then we got excited cause we knew this was our baby. We finally told my parents , then his, and now they are helping us out. I will never regret my baby girl and neither does my boyfriend. I thank God for her, she is now our life.
