My Sweet Wonderful Child

Hilda, why don't you adopt?
I am not really religious in anyway, I do not believe in any lord, or god.
But don't judge me for that, for I believe the god you believe in WOULD want you to help a child that was given a chance and not aborted.
I think you should truly adopt a child and I swear you will love them more then your own.
I feel bad for your previous child you aborted as well, but keep strong.

I can relate to how your feeling. I was 19 when I got pregnant I found out at 12 weeks, at 13 weeks I almost died. I had no choice but to abort my baby since I already had a 2 year old I had to make the hardest decision of my life that day and still 4 years later I can't get over it I think about my baby everyday and hope that he/she forgives me. Know that my children are my greatest achievements in my life and I know god will help me through my sadness x

At the age of 21 I had an abortion because of certain reasons and now I think about it every day, I want a baby so badly and I'm not getting one, I'm 24 and desperately need a child and now I'm starting to think I won't be able to conceive because of what I did in the Past. I know God has forgiven me and I have forgiven myself as well but I always think maybe that was my 1st and last child. I'm so scared I always pray to God to give me a chance to be a mother.

This poem describes exactly how I feel. Word by word. The decision wasn't entirely mine. My parents pressured me and didn't leave me with a choice. I'm 19 yrs old and I still cant make my own decisions. Even though this wasn't planned I would have loved to keep it. I knew I wouldn't last too long with the guy but it didn't matter to me. I loved my baby so much and would have given it anything and everything. its been 3 months and I think about my baby everyday. I regret my decision and shouldn't have been so scared of my parents. and now I live with this guilt for the rest of my life.

I had an abortion at the age of 14. At the time I really didn't know what I was doing. It was my parents idea but I still felt wrong. The morning of my appointment I begged and pleaded with my parents. They talked me into going. I will never forget the disgust and hatred I felt for myself as I sat in the waiting room. I got to see my beautiful baby on an ultra sound for the first time right before the procedure. He/she was kicking and moving and had a strong heart beat. After it was over I have never been the same. I have a lot of anger and sadness for myself. I just want my precious little angel to know that I love you so much and if I could go back and change the decision I would. I am now a mother of a beautiful 5 year old and I'm currently pregnant with my second daughter. Not a day goes by without me thinking of you. You will forever be in my heart. Everynight your sister and I pray too you. We love you baby.

My name is Manda and I'm 17 years old. Almost three weeks ago when I was 11 weeks pregnant I decided to have an abortion. I was told that my baby had a very high risk of having extreme birth defects that would effect its heart, lungs, and brain due to the medications that I was on. I wanted so badly, more than anything in this world, for my perfect little baby to be healthy and have a good chance at life but it didn't seem possible. I couldn't risk bring my baby into this world for it to suffer like it would have. I can relate to you and your poem so much. Every day I think about what my baby would have been like and how amazing it would have felt to hold and kiss and protect my baby. When I was pregnant I wasn't alone. I had my beautiful angel with me but now when I lay down at night I am alone and feel empty. You have incredible strength and hope someday I can some how forgive myself for what I've done.

I have not had an abortion and do not presume to understand what you're going through. I am a Christian and cast no stones but rather words of love and encouragement. We ALL make mistakes daily and thank GOD that He forgives us when we ask. I know that God and His angels are holding your baby and taking care of him/her while waiting for you. Lean on God and He will see you through. Ephes. 4:32 (KJV)

This poem is pretty much exactly how I feel. I had an abortion 6 years ago and I was not a Christian. I am still struggling with the forgiving myself part but I know that God has. I wish I could take what I did back but I can't. I wish I would have let myself love that child or give someone who wanted that baby a chance to be a parent but I can't take back what I did. I have had to learn to live with it and get through it just like you and my only comfort has been through Jesus. I wouldn't be here right now if it wasn't for him. I tried to take my own life twice because of the abortion but I found forgiveness and now I get the awesome privilege of being a mother to twins now. I will look forward and dread the day I will be reunited with my baby because I am so ashamed of what I did I am scared to face the baby but I want to meet my angel so bad. I know how you feel just keep relying on Jesus he will get you through.

I don't understand how a mother would kill her child... you know instead of killing someone... you could save many lives by letting other adults adopt your children because maybe they can't have kids that is better than wasting a life and you will love that child and you will think of where it is and if it is safe... but you did the best thing you could
