I booked to have an abortion at 10 weeks
By anonymous on 08/02/2010
I am 23yrs old and have a son who is 5 and have been with my partner for 7yrs. We planned our first child and I had a good pregnancy until I went into premature labour at 27weeks. I had my son who weighed 2lb 4oz and luckily was born with no health issues. He stayed in hospital for 3months until he was able to feed and breathe on his own as you can imagine this was a very hard time for us as a young couple but we managed and my partner decided that he never wanted anymore children because of this traumatic experience. I always new I wanted one more and always had faith my son would be fine. In 2008 I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome which can affect fertility and was told it was not likely that I would ever get pregnant. I took it hard but then came to terms with the fact that I would never have a baby so we convinced ourselves it would never happen and stopped using contraception.
