Well, thank you for the advice. And I agree that I need to figure out how to tell him, not just for him but so that I don't feel guilty all of the time. Just thinking about telling him makes me so afraid, even though I know he'll accept it. I'm going to accept the post-abortion care package that Cheryl has so generously offered. And I think that I do need to talk to a professional about dealing with my guilt, which is now like anxiety. I'm not a very spiritual person so I'm apprehensive about many of the post-abortion services. Really, I'm just apprehensive about anything that might make me look deeper into myself :) Thanks for the websites...

By the way, for anyone else who may read this: It took me sooo long to finally reach for help, and even though I'm alone in front of a computer, these interactions have given me a start. I'm grateful that this website was here for me, and that I don't feel judged.

Hi Marie! I can relate to your feelings as well, as I have also had 3 abortions in the past...My first was when I was 15 and was not in a healthy relationship (lived with my boyfriends drunk family), then again when I was 16 with a different guy, and the last (and the one that hurt the most) was when I was around 24. The last was when my youngest child was only about a year old, and my husband and I decided not to keep it. Men can be really supportive when you give them a chance to be a part of everything. I have spent way too much time dwelling on what might have been with my pregnancies, and yes it is embarrassing to admit that i have been pregnant 5 times but only have 2 children, and never had a miscarriage...But, i have recently had a total hysterectomy (i am only 31) to try to help my endometriosis, and found out yesterday that i also had adenomyosis as well. Sometimes i think that God is punishing me for my TA's by giving me major health problems, but then i give my head a shake and try to get beyond my past and build a good life with my husband and children. I guess what took me so long to say LOL, is that there IS light at the end of the tunnel, and you may never be totally at peace with your choices (i am not, yet), but we still all have to move on with life! Take Care of you first and foremost, thats very important!!
