i just turned 20 on christmas eve. my period was 12 days late and i waited until the 27th to take a pregnancy test.

after i discovered i was pregnant, my boyfriend at the time revealed he had been seeing another woman who he'd also impregnated.

it was my very last day of my first year of university when i found out i was pregnant.

tokophobia: the fear or intense dread of pregnancy and/or childbirth. i have suffered from tokophobia since my brother was born when i was 14.

i had a 2-day second trimester abortion at 18 weeks on may 3, 2016. nothing was wrong with the baby.

i was a 29 year old doctor when my birth control failed and i became pregnant.
