I am not gonna bash you for being irresponsible, so you made what you believe to be a mistake. Don't make another one, if you don't want the baby you need to have it done professionally. Taking herbal medications and trying alternate routes is extremely dangerous for your girlfriend.
I just want to add I am pro-choice and I understand your fears. BUT I got pregnant a year and a half ago and I decided to keep my baby. I now have a little boy. My point in telling you this is I believe that many people feel they aren't ready for this type of thing. Having a child is life-altering but I will tell you there will never be a day that goes by where you regret having your child, whereas there might be regrets if you have an abortion. Life has so much more meaning when you have a child.
I believe I know what your choice will be, you seem pretty set in what you are going to do. Please just be safe about this. Like others have said you do need to be more responsible. Abortion isn't birth control and I hope you learn from your mistake.

not sure about a herbal abortion but if you weren't ready for a baby then you should of used protection and waited til you were ready but i don't like the thought of people having abortions but if that is YOUR choice and you haven't talked with your partner then i think you need to both sit down and alk through everything but having a baby isn't that bed come on you did the deed and you knew all the consequences and that every time you have unprotected sex it can lead to pregnancy so talk with your doctor before anything is finally good luck and next time use protection

If you and you girlfriend both decide to have an abortion that is you choice but really think about this cause you will have to live with your actions forever.
There are other options... adoption for one, there are thousand of wonderful couples out there that want to start a family but can't and would give that baby a beautiful home.
Also you need to be more careful if your not ready to be a parent, you girlfriend should be on the pill and you should always use a condom just to be sure, its not fair that an innocent child might have to die cause your not more careful.

Blue Cohosh contains at least two uterine contracting substances, an oxytocic effect, {oxytocin is a hormone produced during childbirth which causes the uterus to contract} and a substance called Caulosaponin which is a unique substance found only in Blue Cohosh which causes the uterus to contract. It is also an estrogenic herb meaning it contains estrogen-like substances and can have estrogen-like side effects (those with estrogen-dependent tumors should not use this herb). If you are not suppose to use the pill, then you should not use this herb unless under the guidance of your herbalist.
Its abortive qualities are best extracted into an alcohol base, thus a tincture made from the root would be the best form to take.
When attempting to dislodge pregnancy causing the uterus to contract is desirable. Blue Cohosh can be used by itself or combined with other herbs. It is commonly used with Pennyroyal, an herb with abortifacient qualities and/or Black Cohosh, which will help to soften the cervix and relax the os, it also encourages coordinated uterine contractions and according to some sources black cohosh is used to temper the intensity of blue cohoshes contractability

No i haven't herd of any herbal abortions, you and your g/f need to discuss this a great deal and if abortion is your choice, do it professionally there are plenty of clinics that can help you just make sure you make the right decision, a little baby wouldn't be that bad would it?!

None of these punk rednecks understand the gravity of the situation. If you cannot support a baby and wish to save your wife the pain (emotional and physical) and stress of having a child of her own then giving it up to another couple, then get an abortion.
Yes, they are painful, and yes, you are aborting a human fetus. But that human fetus has not had any significant experiences, and would be damned to a terrible household if kept.
Abort it, if she wants to, do it.
There are no herbal abortions that I know of.

You don't have to abort, but if she wants to it's her choice.
You can also put the child up for adoption when it's born.
A lot of adoptive families encourage a close relationship with the biological parents.
You should consider it, and if you feel you're ready for a child later you could always try to re-adopt, though that's not always possible.
If anyone tells you you can get a herbal abortion, that's rubbish.
They could harm your girlfriend.
Just go get a real one.

There has always been 'herbal' ways of this BUT they were made by SKILLED practitioners, people that were TRAINED to make these things, just like modern doctors. The weren't everyday joe's. If it's not done correctly, it could KILL HER.
Best advice is to go to planned parenthood and deal with this.
I won't scold you, because you already know you "f"ed it up.
as for all you "adoption" people, there's over 100,000 kids every year waiting to be adopted, how many of YOU have adopted one?

So, what's new about not being ready for a baby?
More than 80% of newborns were a "surprise" to the family.
Get used to it like the rest of us
BE A MAN
Own-up to what YOU HAVE DONE
You are already a father
NOW BE A HUSBAND AND A DAD
Herbal??? You would kill the mother as well as the child???
All for not keeping your fly zipped?
