Question

Answer 1

I'm sorry, I am a little perplexed. You killed a life, and now you want to create another one? I'm sorry, you sound too immature to have a baby.Why don't you wait a while and figure yourself out. YOU had abortion 5 months ago, howlong have you been "trying" to conceive? Did you even think about the situation before you decided to abort then? Did you even think about trying to conceive now ?Or did you even consider what answers you were going to get for your question?

Answer 2

Hi Banana.

You need to see a doctor. Only an OB-Gyn can diagnose the problem. Abortions are hard on the body and can sometimes cause scarring of the uterus, which sometimes prevents the egg from attaching properly. See a doctor.

You never said if the child you aborted belonged to the man you are with now. If it didn't, then I can understand your reasons. But if the child you aborted did belong to the man you are currently with, then I am confused as to why now- five months later- you wish for another pregnancy. Was there something wrong with the last pregnancy- was the baby going to have birth defects?

I ask that you really think about the reasons why you want to conceive now. You should even pray about it. Is it out of guilt? If so, then you are not ready for another child...

Personally, my advice to you is to wait before trying for another child. Give your body a year or two to heal, and then try again. However, I still think you should see a doctor. There might be something seriously wrong.

Best Wishes...

Answer 3

22 one child already and an abortion 5 months ago...I think you have other issues....focus on the child you already have before having another one. Are you sure your just not looking for the attention you get from being pregnant? Would the abortion not eat at you- why would you even consider another child when this one could have been here in four months....you should really put a lot more thought into this first....

Answer 4

I am sure you have paid your price for the abortion. That must have been a difficult decision.

Something could have happened during that abortion. If you did the abortion in a not recognized hospital, they could have severely, if worse permanently, damage the internal lining of your womb.

This would make the fertilized egg unable to attach to your womb for further development into fetus.

However, there are more than one reason if you are unable to get pregnant. Maybe the problem is on your husband. And I must say 5 months is consider a very short period for attempt to get pregnant.

You should pay a visit to obstetrician-gynecologist to discuss this matter. Live a healthy lifestyle, rest more, workout, eat a good balance diet to keep your body at the peak condition for conception. And for your husband, eat more oyster to boost the Zinc, two Orange a day for 1 month to increase Vitamin C; all these to keep his sperm at top condition. (Good trees grow from good seeds)

I hope you will soon have a healthy baby, and if possible, babies.

Answer 5

I have to agree with some of the other answers. You had an abortion 5 months ago, you had a chance for another child and gave it away. I don't see how waiting 5 months makes you more ready to have one now then you did then. Your body also might not be ready to have one physically because of the abortion. Sometimes having an abortion cause problems internally to keep you from getting pregnant again

Attention answering people - check out her other questions...

As to my answer...
You don't sound like you need any more children. You are only 22, already have 3, and have aborted 1 then started trying for another only about a month after the abortion.

Why is any of this our business? Well, it's not unless (as I suspect) you are having more children than you can handle and we have to pay taxes for welfare to support you just because you want to keep having kids when you are having a hard time with the pressure from the ones you have.

Answer 7

There are certainly things that can happen during an abortion
that may make it more difficult (or impossible) to conceive.

However, is your current mate the same as the father to the
baby that was aborted? If not, the problem may be his.

That is, it may be that you are fine but he has a low sperm count
or motility issues.

Its easy enough to find out - both of you can get tested.

However, 5 months is *NOTHING* - I've known people to
try for years before conceiving naturally.

Answer 8

What is the rush to have a baby? You aborted one already. What if you decide to abort the next one? When God gives you a gift you need to treasure it.

Are you married? Five months is not very long to be trying to conceive. If it is still a problem in a year see your doctor.

Answer 9

If you want to get pregnant now why did you have an abortion 5 months ago? If you weren't selfish you could already be 5 months pregnant.

Answer 10

It takes time for your body to recover from a traumatic thing like that. You may not even been able to concieve at all. I know someone who has had a few abortions and is still fine though. I am not going to judge you and I am sure you had your reasons but please be sure you are ready for a child this time because there may not be another.
