**trigger** Bestfriend **trigger**

Chrissie
Ok so I had a miscarriage on Monday, saw my doctor Wednesday, and ultimately had to have a d&c on Friday. I am absolutely devastated! So today, which is Sunday, 2 days after my d&c my best friend stops over and tells me she pregnant...annnnd that she prob gonna have an abortion. She went into detail on how it's just a pill, no biggie until 8 weeks...I tried to not break down and cry because she's not ok right now and is scared to tell her boyfriend. Also she is 26 years old, not a teen, done with college, has a good job. 
I just have been crying all night and don't even know what to say to her, all I want is another baby, and she... Ugh...I'm sorry I just needed a place to vent and put my feelings down.
Thank you all

It was so insensitive of her to come to you with this information right now. I'm assuming she knew about your miscarriage and D&C? And she still thought this was an appropriate conversation to have with you? I am so sorry for your loss and that you had to shoulder this today. It's not fair. Just continue to remind yourself that other women having babies or abortions will not in any way affect your ability to have a baby. You have to focus on your own healing and grief right now. You can help friends when you've taken care of your own needs first. Remember, put your own oxygen mask on before assisting others.

That is NOT a friend. Well, at least not any longer, I hope. Talk about missing the sensitivity chip.

Thank you for validating my feelings! Yes she knew everything that happened with me. I just have so many feeling and emotions and don't know where to put them. You are right! My oxygen mask first! Thank you!

I've been in this situation but my best friend was only 20 and she didn't want to tell me because I am like a mom to her and I had just had my d&c. I figured it out and when she told me she was aborting I cried and couldn't speak to her for a week. Then I realized she was scared and alone with noone. As much as I didn't like her choice, its her body. I took care of her after the procedure because I love her.

I'm so sorry! That must be incredibly hard to have to deal with. It's really sad that she feels like that is the answer for her situation. Sadly it just doesn't seem fair. Those that want them can't seem to get them and those that can don't understand what a blessing they have. Stay strong!

Would u consider adopting her child if she chooses to have it? Would it be something she would consider I'm so sorry for ur loss I just miscarried on July 12 it's been hard on me too I can't be live she would come to u with this after all ur going thru I understand it being your bestie and all but really that's nit the way to do this I don't agree with abortion but it's everyone's right to choose also as of now but a pill to kill ur child is stupid she could give someone the chance that can't have babies to be a parent so many people fail to think of those that struggle so much to have their own children. I know this is a hard time for u but if you can talk to her try to get her to think of that baby it's alive it's so innocent and helpless and Simone out there would love that baby like it was their own just a thought if u could convince her to have the child and u could find it in yourself to take that baby as ur own it would be an amazing thing she could do for u and herself if she feels she doesn't want to be a mother or give it to someone who really wants a baby but can't have one of their own prayers your way hun and if she does choose to kill her baby I think it best to keep some distance till you can heal some from your loss I know that it will put such a strain on your friendship if she does abort her baby prayers your way and I hope if u conceive again that you have a healthy pregnancy losses are so hard I know.

I already feel completely different about her. I told her to talk to her mom before she made any decisions but she refused, I know her mothers views on this. She was going to a clinic today but I told her u didn't want to know anymore so I don't know what she did yet :(

After she told me she was pregnant I started crying, I told her it would be ok and that I would help her with everything. She said no I don't need help, I'm getting an abortion. Her mind was already made up. Then she joked and said "why u want it?" I said absolutely! She said she could never dot!!
