I am not planning on getting an abortion, but I thought I was pregnant and I am not, but we got into an argument while looking at all the options about this when I thought I was. Now, I am curious if he would ever know if I did get an abotion or gave it up for adoption if we got divorced? I live in CA and I saw a site that said they don't need a spouse consent for an abortion?

No your husband cannot prevent you from having an abortion....and if he threatened you with this....i wouldnt have sex with him again.....it IS your body...and it IS your right and you DONT have to tell anyone what your reasons are.

Why does any of that matter if your married anyways. Why would you want an abortion. I know you said you werent going to do that, Im jsut saying that. If I were the husband I sure would want a chance to keep my child. I would never want my child aborted or given up. I think the husband should have rights too. It is part of him too. You usually have to tell the doctor in a history if youve had an abortion before, so they can properly take care of you. Im sure in some states the husband does have rights. Just dont know which one.

You dont need hubbys consent to have an abortion but if you chose to have the baby and you got divorsed you still need hubby to sign over his rights to the child. But what i would do if that situation arose is look at all the options before making that discision. And maybe you should think about taking precautions so you dont have to make that choice. Sounds to me you are both way immature to be making babies anyway

For adoption, he'd have to surrender his parental rights. If you were to divorce and had the baby (yes i know there is no baby) why wouldn't you want it to go to the father? Doesn't make sense. I don't agree with abortion, so I won't weigh in there, except to say if you're married and he wants it, its his kid too.

Sadly as far as I know you dont need consent for an abortion from anyone, thanks to the liberal nutjobs in this country its "a womans body" so she can do whatever she wants with it, even though the child growing inside of her is 1/2 of her significant others. I however think, the man does deserve a say in the matter, it took both of you to create the child, it should take both of you to decide where to go from there.

No a doctor cannot tell it is doctor /patient privilege. And its your body you do make the final decision but also don't forget the baby is also his, he shouldn't gotten mad at you about it but sat you down in told you why he didnt want you to have the procedure.

It doesn't sound like you and your husband are in the right place in your marriage to be making babies. You need to be on birth control. If you don't want babies, don't make them, its that simple.
