Physically there is nothing stopping you getting pregnant straightaway although some doctors do advise to wait a while. Emotionally though do you think you're ready? You may be still grieving for the baby you aborted.

Have you spoke to your doctor about it? What do they say?

I agree with Beckster06. Physically, nothing is stopping you unless something went wrong during, or because, of the abortion. However, with it being 9 months ago, you probably would have figured it out, but not always.

And, if you are not emotionally ready for another baby, then you have an increased risk of PPD. I have seen this happen before.

Just to back up the other two, it is highly unlikely that you have problems conceiving due to the abortion (I believe the actual chances are just 1%, and that's not from the termination, but rather infections which are more common in childbirth). After a person gives birth, ideally she would rest at least a year to give her womb time to heal before trying for another baby and this also applies after an abortion or miscarriage, but no way near as long. Nine months is a good time for you womb to return to how it was previously and heal after your pregnancy.

The only other thing I advise you on is the reasons for wanting to be pregnant again. Please, please be sure that you are not trying to replace the baby you aborted or wanting to cover any possible guilt for what happened (your affair included), because the consequences can be very devastating emotionally and psychologically for you and your family. Be certain that you are wanting a baby for all the right reasons (that you genuinely want a child, not since you feel regret for your abortion) - that's something you owe to your husband and future baby and most of all - yourself.

Good luck.

Well I had an abortion 9/27/08 and really regret it.I pray everyday that god will forgive me for what I have done it had a lot to do with the influnce of other people because I'am 19 years old with a 3 year old I'am still hurt over it and now it is june and I have decided to start trying again and would never do that again.
