Check out this group's What Is It Like To Have An Abortion guide, where people with this experience share their tips and hints.

Here are a few tips...
  • This may help make it hurt a little less. Name your aborted/miscarried child. You will meet and see your child in the next life. They are all safe with God. Isn't that comforting to know?
  • All I can say is physically nothing. Emotionally AWFUL!!! If youre thinking of having an abortion please dont do it. I would not wish this pain on my worst enemy. For the rest of my life, I have to remember my child's death day. I wish it was a birthday!
  • For me, it was extremely painful, more so physically than emotionally. I opted out of the sedative they offered (valium). After the procedure, however, the pain disappeared almost instantly. I felt sad & drained but like I made the right decision for us.
