Pregnancy & Parenting - 5 December 2006

Just to explore my options (I'm not pregnant) I was recently finding out how you get about getting an abortion... it says that two doctors have to agree that you can have one. The grounds on which are:

having the baby would harm the woman's mental or physical health more than having the abortion. This involves the woman explaining how she feels about the pregnancy to a doctor.
having the baby would harm the mental or physical health of any children she already has.

If it just wasn't a suitable time, and I couldn't support it properly would this count? What kind of reasons do GPs expect and pass as reason to have an abortion?
