Do you regret you abortion?

Of course. As much as we weren't ready, and everything was wrong for a baby, he was still our baby and we both love him. Never getting to see him grow up, never getting to hold him, there's always regret with that. And yes, it was our choice, but it was a huge loss none the less. I take full responsibility for what we did... we ended a life. How could I not regret that?
I know it was the right decision. But there will always be regret.

I have never regretted it a day in my life. When I think of the world that child would have come in to, when I see the dead-eyed looks on those parents faces who deep down never wanted to have kids. And the joy I feel when I see a child being raised responsibly by loving parents. No, I feel more like I saved a life.

Never regretted an abortion. I happily decided to never procreate and have a group on EP all about it. Childfree and happy for 43 years. And I agree with sava744.

No. I felt it was the right decision and I knew I was in no place to raise a child. At the moment it was difficult to take care of myself, I definitely was not ready to be able to care for another life. So no, I don't regret it.

Yes I do. I was married at the time we had just had a baby boy our 2nd child and I became pregnant 6mths later. Til this day I never toldmy husband I had an abortion and it was about 3 years ago. Last year I had got really drunk and for some reason felt like I needed to tell him something and told him I had a miscarriage he was kinda upset I never told him but whats worse is he was most concerned about me. Of course this did not make me feel any better but this is the closest I can get to telling him the truth or at least the version I think he should know.
We were not financially stable enough to have another child and was in a very bad time in our relationship where I didn't know if I would go or stay and I do regret it still have bad dreams about it til this day but it is a burden I must carry because it was a decision I made. I have asked the good Lord to forgive me and that is all that matters

Yes I do regret it. Im sorry to my baby. I didnt even know if it was a boy or girl which i guess may be a little better. But then it also keeps me thinking more. I has been 6 months and I am still having a really hard time dealing with it.

When I got pregnant in my Senior Year of High School, abortions were not legal. I was offered the choice to go to a home and have the baby and give it up for adoption. I chose to have the baby. It ended up that she was the only one I could have. She is my best friend. I'm glad I didn't have the choice because I would have had the abortion. Luckily it was impossible for me to find an illegal abortionist also at that time.

Hell Yea.. I regret my abortion, im really sorry to my baby and honestly i didnt have a choice. It will never happen again. Whateer my consequence is i will handle it like a women and not make ppl make choices for me

NO I DONT it would destroy my life if i didnt
i was with 2 weeks b4 the heart was made

Yes. I felt I had no choice, but it was the hardest desiscion I've ever made. It was traumatizing, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I didn't want to do it, but the father already has two kids and has no job, and I work at a coffee shop and am a full-time college student.

I hate myself for doing it though. Avoid it at all costs.

I made the right decision for me, which was to terminate my pregnancy at 9 weeks. The only thing I regret is that I didn't take the proper precaution in the first place.

I almost aborted my first one. I was going thru a divorce from a psychopath, and pregnant by another jerk, and thigns were prety bad. My mom wanted me to abort, because she was afraid of what people would think of her, But I couldn;t bring myself to it, so I put the baby up for adoption. I do NOT regret that!

All I can tell you is that I was 37 and decided to have my child. Not married and an abusive boyfriend. It was worth it. I love my child with all my heart. If you are trying to decide, the baby was worth it. I would have run from the guy if I had it to do over. My parents really stepped up, I did not know what to expect from them. It shocked them, but it turned out ok.

i have never had one, but my mother did in her youth and my best friend in high school did as well... they both regret it greatly ...
i myself lost my first baby due to miscarriage and going through that and the lost of that i know that i could never abort a child unless there was valid health concerns and i think even then i would have a hard time with it... even though i never knew my child i still miss it greatly and think about the baby often... i dont think i could ever do it because even if i could afford a kid... there are people willing to adopt that would be more than happy to have them if i didnt...

Sooner or later that person will regret for killing an innocent human being, especially the embryo is of his/her blood relation.

Yes, it was a very agonising decision to make. I hated myself for doing it. I've never been a very good mother, I always thought I would be, but I'm not. But at the time, I could not care for a child. And I had nobody to help. I was also terrified of pregnancy and scared to death of labor. I was young and completely naieve about a lot of things.
But I don't believe in judging anyone for having an abortion. I was in that place once and made that very decision. I wouldn't do it again.

Women who have abortions have them for reasons known to them. Whatever their reasons were at the time I fully support them.

I already had 2 boys when I got my abortion...and no I dont regret it. And honestly, on the ride home from the clinic I breathed a hugh sigh of relief...I knew I made the right decision. I think about it sometimes...but not often. Its been 4 years now...NOPE dont regret it at all.

my mothers abortion breaks my heart, my big brother died 5years ago he drowned... i still miss him. i cant talk to anyone because i cant open up to anyone like i could my brother. i wish my mother didnt have her abortion because i would have a older sibling right now that would understand and help me... but ofcourse i hold no grudge. i love my mother. she always is there for me. just, i can burden my hardships on a lady who lost 2/3 of her children with my problems. (she regrets her abortion)
