years ago, i had what is medically called a "missed abortion": when the fetus dies but the woman carrying it doesn't miscarry.

may 31st that year was my appointment date. i made such a huge mess of my life in such a short amount of time. i guess i had doubt i could even get pregnant.

when i was 16 i was in an abusive relationship with a man about 4 years older than me. i lost my virginity to him, and i got pregnant the first time we had unprotected sex.

i miss my little grape every day. i have always protected myself and somehow it failed this time. i know that i couldn't afford the best life for a baby.

i'm 26 years old and found out i was pregnant feb. 17th. i knew almost im世界杯2022亚洲预选赛b组 tely thanks to an app i use to track my periods(and ovulation), and i've always had decently regular, on time periods.

i wasn't sure about sharing my story, but now i feel like i have no choice. just like all women in missouri are about to have no choice.

when i was 16, i was told by a doctor that i would never get pregnant. when i was 23 years old, i had left college with no degree, bummed around a few communes with disastrous results, and was back at home trying to make sense out of my life.
