“…Checked in with the counselor.. are you being forced? No. Is this your decision? Yes.

Does your partner know you’re here? No.

My partner, of four years.. which we already have a child together, does not know I’m here. He thinks I had a miscarriage. Himself and his family are extremely pro-life, Catholic, and honestly, I’m surprised they’re not the ones standing outside those doors screaming obscenities at the women walking inside. Is this something I should have thought about before deciding to have unprotected sex? Yes. But who’s thinking about their partners/families political and moral views while you’re having sex? Not me.

I told him I went for an ultrasound and they found an empty sac. It only measured 5.5 weeks. He feels better knowing there was never really a ‘baby.’ Little does he know.

…I’m back in recovery, and I just don’t know what to feel. In fact, I don’t really feel anything. Just dizzy and crampy. 20 minutes later and I feel fine to leave. The nurse walks me out, tells me to feel better and take care, and the nice man at the front opens the door and says the same. The protesters are out there now… great. Luckily they were too busy yelling at someone else to pay attention to me.

I’m now home and resting. My other two kids are just being their normal, hyper, and crazy selves. I know I did the right thing for myself, for my children, and for my future. I’m sure I’ll go through my periods of feeling differently as my hormones fluctuate and go back to normal.

I know it was for the best. And I accept that.”
