The purpose of this board is to provide support to women who have decided to have an abortion, have questions about abortion procedures or who have had an abortion. This is NOT the place to debate abortion or attempt to influence other women's opinions about the issue. Posts with links outside iVillage should also reflect the purpose of this board. If they lead to a site that is designed to dissuade, discourage, or upset women who have had or are considering abortion, the posts will be removed. If you want to debate the issue or are undecided and looking for advice on what to do regarding your unplanned pregnancy, please visit the following boards:
