“I often pause and wonder what my baby would have looked like, would have become. When I see pictures of babies 20 weeks in the womb, it takes me back to my baby and yes I still weep.”
“I want young pregnant women to know that they are mothers now, before the baby is born, and it is within their own power to stand up for their child.”
"I was 16.
My boyfriend dropped me off at the local Planned Parenthood clinic because I was underage and he wasn't, and we were worried he'd get in trouble.”
“My child is my pride and joy and I cry when I think of those few moments where I was weak. My child is a world changer. My child is so in love with life. My child has taught me so much!”
“I was 18 and on my own when I got pregnant with my boyfriend of 2 years and we had already broken up, and unknown to me he was living with another girl at the time.”
“I was 18 and on my own when I got pregnant with my boyfriend of 2 years and we had already broken up, and unknown to me he was living with another girl at the time…”
“Women need support. Women need to know you care about them and their child. And anyone who reads this and is struggling, know that I care! I want to help! You are amazing and strong! And you and your child are irreplaceable and priceless.”
If you are stuck between abortion and choosing life, just know that you are capable of beating the odds too. Women are capable of being unstoppable, successful, and badass. You can do it. I believe in you.
“I’ve been through some horrible shit in my life but nothing was as traumatic as having that abortion.”
“I want to share my testimony with you guys. I’m not going to sugarcoat it, so that people can understand the true horror of abortion...”
“It was then I had to make a choice. A choice that would shape my future. A choice to either give up on me and let my circumstances overcome me or be an over-comer to my circumstances. I chose life.”
“Abortion is a quick fix physically but a long term pain mentally. I will never forget my past..it will always haunt me.”
“When asking the doctor, 'What does the BABY look like?’ he replied, 'It's just a blob of marshmallow fluff'. Years later I saw a picture of the perfectly formed tiny child in that 'marshmallow fluff’.”
“I messed up... 18 years ago I made the biggest mistake I could have ever made. I had an abortion.”
"Seven years ago, I made the biggest bravest decisions I will ever make. I made the decision to give my daughter life...a life that wasn't with me .”
“I got pregnant at 18 and had him at 19. Was it hard? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely.”
“I have two grandchildren in heaven whom I have never met, never hugged, never kissed, never danced with, never laughed with. As I write this I am now crying. “
“I want younger people to understand how abortion will affect them when they are older. I will be 62 soon.”
"When I told him the baby was my choice and I would never murder my child, he started beating me, trying to get me to miscarry."
"We decided from the beginning, even if he had died his first day, that we would fight for him. That is what a parent does."
"Choosing adoption is the strongest, bravest, most selfless, most loving thing you could do! Be someone's miracle!"
"Never in a million years would I regret the decision I made... I changed his life to make sure he got the things I would never have been able to provide. And I gave an incredible couple the chance to be a real family and have the love and happiness that they deserved."
"I don't want to get into much detail because it's still a touchy subject, but I was raped and I knew the person ... I ended up pregnant at the age of 16."
“At the age of 20, I was brutally raped...Then I received news that I was close to 3 months pregnant as a result of the assault. I was terrified."
“This was the biggest mistake of my life. Something that has changed me forever. I will never feel the same as I did before. It didn’t liberate me. It didn’t empower me. It didn’t make my life better in anyway. The depression consumed my life and left me hollow.”
