Q: pregnancy after abortions

I had 3 abortions when I was youger. I'm so ashamed of that but I didn't have a supporting family and it seem like the only thing to do. I know it sounds stupid and I'll never do that again. Well I'm older know and I'm worried that I'll never be able to have kids I even feel like I don't deserve to. Now I really want to be a mother I'm not trying or anything yet. What's gonna happen if I do become pregnant or will I be able to.

I've never heard of abortions having any affect on future pregnancies. Don't be ashamed, you did what was best at that point in time. If and when you become pregnant, and there is nothing else wrong with you (i.e. heart troubles, etc.), then you should have a happy and healthy pregnancy and baby!

Good Luck

Thank you, That really did make me feel a lot better since I been in a deep depression since. Babies are a blessing I just hope I do get a chance to experience it. My little cousin just had a baby and she's only 15. I really felt bad cause I was a little older. I didn't have the sence to just have mines I was so afraid and here she is 15 and doing it.

Yes, I know how you must feel but you cannot live your life in regret. You have lived, you have learned andyou will be a more compassionate and understanding person. Your baby will be loved and cared for. You will be a mother who has known pain and heartache and you will be a better mother for it.

Abortions don't have any effect on fertility, don't worry.

As long as the procedures were perfomed correctly it shouldn't have any affect on fertility. However everyone should meet with their doctor before trying to conceive and most doctors will ask if not you should mention it.
