i was 16 going on 17, my boyfriend at the time was crap. he was abusive and manipulative, he though i would him since i lost my virginity to my first boyfriend a year before. he would call me a whore and would coerce and force me into having sex with him. after i found out about him cheating on me i went to the clinic, i was tired and i wanted to know i was okay, no std’s.<\/p>\n
that was the when i found out, i was one month pregnant. no symptoms were present, i was completely shocked. i cried very hard, i never expected to become pregnant. i had just gotten off birth control to switch and just happened that during that window of time, he had raped me. so, there i was 16, pregnant to a guy whom, treated me like crap. i made the decision to terminate the pregnancy all by myself. after all i got myself into the situation, (maybe not all by myself), but i knew i could afford a baby. even though i knew i could take care of a baby, i couldn’t be a mom. it is one thing to take care of other peoples babies but to actually have one and raise it by myself, i couldnt do it.<\/p>\n
my mom had been on vacation and i wasn’t about to tell my father, he would have killed me. not literally but he would have disowned me. so i asked a really good friend of mine to accompany me. we went to the clinic a week after, fortunately i was very early in the pregnancy and i just had to take pills. one to stop the fetus from growing and the other to induce the miscarriage. in the course of 48 hours i wasn’t pregnant no more, i broke up wit my ex and i decided that i need to undo all the mistakes i had done. i got my grades in check, i tried to be a good friend to everyone i left behind. and i decided i did what i had to do for myself and for the future of my future children.<\/p>\n
now at 21, looking back now the decision i took back then was mature. my present would have been completely different if i hadn’t done what i needed to do. at the age of 19 i broke down and told my mother, she forgave me and she told me that she was proud of my choice because it was my body and only i knew what was good enough for me.<\/p>\n
so to anyone who is in the same situation, know that only you can my the decision for yourself. weigh your options and specifically don’t doubt yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
