Im not a skank to all of you ignorant people who assume what they know nothing about and I am married also I have one child and to have another would put me and my family in the poor house . Plus I have been on birth control for over 2 years . SO i am not sure if I am even pregnant I have not taken a test yet. I want serious answers and no criticism. Put yourself in my shoes and my situations and then maybe you would see clearly.

It is usually between 250-350....but please really think about your decision...I was thinking about it at one time and I am so happy I never did it.. A baby is too precious to throw away!!

Hi, I know you must be getting a lot of flack from this question. It is such a controversial subject and I am not here to judge you. I don't know the financial cost of abortion, but I do know that the emotional cost is very high. That is something you really need to consider. Pregnancy is rough -- painful and inconvenient -- as you know. For most, it is worth it in the end. But for some, raising a child is too overwhelming or too expensive... everything is so personal. All I know is that I have a dear friend who has been trying to have a baby for 13 years. She has had several miscarriages, endometriosis, hysterectomy and two failed adoptions. She would give anything to carry a little baby to term and raise it as her own. If there is anyway you can hang in there and not abort, there are families, like this one I know, that would give the baby a loving home. It would be 9 months of your life that would be tough, but the child would have the rest of his/her life to grow and experience. Please think carefully about it. I have 4 children and another on the way -- it is tough, and sometimes we barely make ends meet, but I love it. I love the laughter and chaos that comes with having kids. Multiple children aren't for everyone, but there is someone that craves that and can't make it happen. Just think about it.

11 weeks and earlier it cost around $500 or below. If you get one after 11 weeks, the price goes up each week that you wait. The moral of the story is that if you want to save money, get an abortion as soon as possible.
Some places may have payment plans but I don't know for sure.
Don't listen to those people who say an abortion will scar you for life, lol. Abortion is far safer than childbirth.

around here its about 400-500, but you should call various clinics in your area (if there are a few) and see if any of them offer it on a sliding scale. If you bring them a months worth of paycheck stubs they can adjust the price for your income.
And dont listen to the a s shole that called you a skank. Sometimes accidents happen, and sometimes abortions are neccesary. Dont feel bad about excersizing your rights as a woman.

When I called Planned Parenthood to inquire about one it was $600.00 for the non surgical abortion. They would just give you a shot that would cause you to abort. I don't know how much a surgical abortion would be. This was in Chicago. Call your local planned parenthood and ask about your area.

Tough situation. Abortion is like $500, but have you considered giving it up for adoption? There are tons of couples out there who can't have a baby of their own and would love to have yours.

It's free if:

2. Go to a public hospital
3. Research over the internet and get right resources
4. If you knew a OBGYN
