i am a 22 year old female who has recently graduated from college. i’m living in d.c. starting my career with my dream job and off of my parents payroll; paying my own rent, paying for my own activities and working for my dream company. i moved here not on any birth control because i was sexually inactive for the past 5 months, but once i moved here i met a guy. we had been casually dating for 2 months when i scheduled an appointment to have a copper iud put in.<\/p>\n
but as life goes, we got drunk one night and had sex without a condom. 5 days later i had a uti and went to the local urgent care to get anti biotics, the doctor informed me that i did have a uti and i was also barley 4 weeks pregnant. shocked, i started to laugh. she gave me the number of a trusted nurse whom i called right away. she stayed on the phone with me for over an hour as i made an appointment and she talked me through my options.<\/p>\n
i had to live being pregnant for 2 more weeks because of how early i was, which bothered me only because i didn’t tell anyone besides my mother. i didn’t even want to know i was pregnant and i was the one who was pregnant, so i decided not to tell anyone.<\/p>\n
2 weeks later, i went to the clinic where an extremely nice and smart obgyn walked me through the surgical abortion i would have and then the im世界杯2022亚洲预选赛b组 te insertion of a copper iud. she was extremely laid back and supportive and made sure that i had an all female staff working on me that day. she gave me the perfect amount of drugs, where i felt painless but not loopy and she also gave me an anti anxiety pill. she let my mother come back and hold my hand during the procedure, i didn’t even know anything was happening until she told me she was done and was going to insert the iud, which didn’t hurt either.<\/p>\n
i had very minimal bleeding and cramping, so little that i got concerned and called the obgyn who just informed me it was because i was so early on. i rested for the rest of the day, slept and my roommate made me pasta. the next day i went shopping with my mom and went about my life.<\/p>\n
my story is probably the best case scenario of an early term abortion, but i want to share it because this is what abortion experiences could be like for women with the right doctors and support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
