Recent Termination.
I recently had my first termination last Thursday. I hear all the time that the people that go there are all the same; people who're selfish and can't be bothered with a child.
That is one of the most incorrect statements I've ever heard. The people I saw there were all different, and there for different reasons.
Myself personally, my fiancèe and I aren't financially stable enough to keep a child. We haven't our own home yet, and neither of us are working full time or make a decent income to support the baby. We had to make the choice to terminate the pregnancy at 10 weeks.
I'm not going to lie, it was tough. Knowing that we had to do it. But I'd rather do it now than have a child grow up not having the things we want to give it. We want a stable, good and happy life prepared long before we have a baby.
The reason we fell pregnant is rather frustrating also. I'd been told by doctors years prior that I couldn't bare children. This was a frustrating situation for us because we do want to have kids later on. So honestly, I stopped using the pill. 8 months after our engagement, I missed one of my periods. I took a pregnancy test and found it was positive. I was horrified, yet absolutely astounded that I could bare kids.
It's been rough, and the recovery process is tough too. But it's alright, because my fiancèe is here, and is entirely supportive. Just as I am to him.
