I work with 3 pregnant women, so I definately know how you are feeling. One is about 2 weeks further along than I would have been. It can be tough sometimes.

If I start to feel really sad or anything, I try and think about why I did what I did...and often I will come here and read or imnotsorry.net, or another abortion board, because it helps me reading other peoples experiences.

Different people handle their decision in different ways..personally I had mine 5 years ago and it still weighs on my mind today. I know that where I was at in my life at that time my decision was the BEST decision for me..even knowing that doesnt make the emotional scaring any less painful.

It's totally normal to be triggered by pregnant women/babies, and to wonder about "What might have been." I hope you're doing better -

this kind of thing happens to me all of the time rellen June 12 2006, 22:56:52 UTC
my "baby" would have been 8 months old this month. Yesterday, I listened longlingly as a group of people around me swapped stories about their children. Then last night, the moon playing tricks on me, I awoke to see a babe resting on my love's shoulder. I so want to have children someday, but we are just not financially solvent enough to have carried through with it (not to mention the fact that my love would have run out on me had I kept it)... what led you to decide to go through with it?
