82. Abortion Stories: Taking a Walk With Women Who Have All Had Different Experiences

Disclaimer: This episode talks about infant loss. Please be aware of that before continuing on with this episode.  Today's episode will feature women from the Motherhood Meets Medicine community that have experienced abortions. Each and every one of these stories is unique and I encourage everyone listening to try to place yourself into the shoes of these women. I think that some of these stories may surprise you and perhaps be different than what you typically think about when you hear the word abortion. I hope that this episode does a few things for those of you who are listening. I hope that it makes others who may have had an abortion, or who may be in the process of making that decision, feel less alone.  I hope that it will open eyes and ears to those that may disagree with abortion, and help them to understand why someone else may make this decision. Most of all I want everyone to understand that this difficult decision is their decision only.  The women who made this choice to talk with me about their experiences are extremely brave and courageous women. They are stepping up to share their stories in hopes that it helps others, and to continue the conversation about why allowing women to choose is so important. If you contributed to this episode, I want to thank you for taking the time out of your busy life to share your stories with us.  In this episode you will hear: Unique stories of why women have had abortions, and how they came to make that decision Explanations of different types of abortions What these women would like to say to other women who are deciding whether or not to get an abortion The response to the question, “What would you want to say to someone that is against abortion and against the right to choose?” Discount codes from my sponsors: Use code LYNZY for 30% off Navy Hair Care: Navy Hair Care Shampoo + Conditioner Navy Hair Care Charcoal Mask Get 10% off your first month of therapy at Better Help  Get a free sample pack of LMNT with any purchase Connect with Lynzy: Join the Motherhood Meets Medicine community at patreon.com/motherhoodmeetsmedicine Instagram: @motherhoodmeetsmedicine Sign up for the weekly newsletter here lynzyandco.com Disclaimer: This podcast does not provide medical advice.
