Mums, I just found out I m pregnant again - and I am not ready for the second one. I am thinking of an abortion. Any advice for me? What is the abortion process like?

I will tell you that the abortion process is physically like a menstrual cramp if it's super early - 1st trimester. If you wait longer it can be very uncomfortable. Additionally, realize that the potential trauma is mostly from the people around you so be careful who you tell. Basically keep it to your partner and yourself unless you think someone should know. I don't even need to look to know that the more religious types, specifically the Abrahamic religions, will say you are rejecting a gift from God or something . But please understand that you and your existing child are gifts from God too. If you are not ready, then don't have them. Get the procedure. Think it through, and if you don't want a second, then don't have one. Women are not solely for reproduction, we are control our bodies. Stay strong, honey.
