Post Abortion Woman Asks, Was My Baby a Boy or a Girl?

“I felt as if I was in the middle of a nightmare.”

Stacy B describes her abortion experience:
“When I called the local abortion [clinic], the man on the phone told me it was urgent that I make reservations right away because the appointments always filled up quickly. He offered no counseling, no alternatives, and no mention of risks. Just urgency! …
“I was awake for the whole thing. I remember asking the doctor if it was a boy or a girl, and he said it was too soon to tell. He acted as if this was no big deal. In the recovery room, a girl who had been in a couple of months before commented that they had new snacks this time.
“I felt as if I was in the middle of a nightmare.”
