I was 14 yo in 1986 when my Dad discovered I was pregnant, his first response was "Youre not having an abortion!" I collapsed into him sitting next to him on the couch crying and said I didn't want one. He then said "Well kids, it's time to grow up"...boy was he right! I am so thankful to Jesus that he gave me that mindset. She is now 37 and a mother herself...she is an amazing person. Thank you Jesus and thank you Dad (Elwood Sr)

My mom found out she had cancer when she found out she was pregnant with me at 22 yrs old. They told her have an abortion and do chemo and you will be fine, she, being a Christian, chose life. 16 months after my birth, she died. THANK YOU MOM FOR CHOOSING LIFE!

My 2nd oldest daughter was raped at 18. She gave birth to her son, my grandson at 19. Raised him and his sister by herself. He is now 19 and slated to go into the Marines. She has never regretted her decision, nor ever looked at him remembering the rapist. She looks at him as the individual he is.

I was 16 when I decided to get an abortion. At my dr’s appt the abortion dr explained how my abortion would happen. He asked wouldn’t it be better if you gave birth to a live baby and give it up for adoption? Because I would have had a saline solution burn my baby alive and give birth to a dead baby. He really gave me the truth and I didn’t go through with it. That was 41 yrs ago and my life and my sons turned out great!! Thank you for sharing the truth!!

I’m so thankful that abortion was illegal in 1964. I gave my baby up for adoption. I met him 44 years later and he’s an amazing awesome man and so good to me.

I was born in 64 and my mom was pushed to get an illegal abortion but she absolutely refused. She had me at 17 and I’m forever grateful that even though she wasn’t even raised Christian she knew she couldn’t kill her baby.

I got pregnant at 24, and my ex literally said “Get rid of it, ” in response to me telling him. It was an earth shattering moment for me because while I knew he wouldn’t be happy, I didn’t understand how anyone could be so cold and cruel. I told him absolutely not. When I told my mom, who’s a faithful Christian, her first response was “please don’t get an abortion.” I told her I wasn’t and we both cried. Although my ex was never involved with my son’s life, it turned out to be a blessing that he wasn’t as he was a very unstable person. My son is now 20 and I’m so proud of him. Please pray that he get saved. He’s been a real blessing from God.

Everyone needs to hear this. How did the world ever come to accept and normalize this cruel treatment of babies?

During my obgyn rotation i was already a practicing christian i told the doctor that i will not participate in abortions to the point where i will not even set up the room. He respected my decision, and then God planted a seed in his heart when i said, at the end of my life i will be held accountable for my actions and he stood there and i saw how it entered him. I pray for him.

Nobody considers the fathers of aborted babies who happened to love & want their child. They are few, but their sorrow is real and deep.

[cheryldianecraddock]

My husband and I had 2 kids and he definitely didnt want more. I thought I was being careful, but I became pregnant. I always told my son that he was a true gift from God. Totally not planned. We named him David from the Bible. God knows what we need. All children are a blessing.

Just, wow! I am weeping hearing the Dr. talk about her miscarriages. In October 1983, I experienced an ectopic pregnancy. It ruptured and I nearly died. Of course, the baby was lost. Fast forward to late September 1984. I was eight months pregnant with my new "rainbow" baby. On a beautiful fall afternoon, I was in the shower planning dinner and hoping my 2-year-old son wasn't completely destroying my house. Suddenly, a literal, physical wave passed through my body and I began sobbing uncontrollably from the depths of my soul. In my spirit, I heard these words, "You've never grieved your lost baby. It was a little girl. You need to name her so that you will know her in heaven". Instantly, the grief lifted and I was at peace. What a God we serve.

When I was 18, I started walking a very sinful dangerous life. My parents told me "In this house we honor God, if you cannot do that, you cannot live here". It was the best thing they did for me, it made a huge impact on the women I am today... and the walk with God I have today.

This couldn't have been an easy interview to do. I'm so proud of her. That took guts.

I was 16, my sons father was 21 when i got pregnant. He called me everyday for 4 months begging me to abort my our baby. When after 16 weeks i FINALLY told my very strong Christian parents, their response was to try to beg me not to abort, what a wonderful surprise!! My son is a 43 year old Christian husband and father❤ God turned my mess into a wonderful message!!!❤❤

Thanks for sharing. I was offered an abortion at 21 weeks pregnant, when it was discovered my child had a blocked urethra. It seemed to be the only solution to the "problem." I found a doctor at Stanford to place a shunt into my child's bladder and saved his life. He is almost 9 years old. I remember asking my OB if my son was in pain because he bladder was so full and told me no he doesn't feel pain at this point. Two weeks later the doctor placing the shunt gave my son an injection of pain medication to help with the pain the pain of the procedure. I still am in awe I got to keep him. I still have my son when all the odds weren't in his favor.

I was raped and pregnant 30 years ago. My daughter is thirty years old, the most gorgeous registered nurse, and saved my life. God is amazing through his beloved Son Jesus Christ 🙏

My dad's partner's daughter got pregnant when she was 15. We still don't know the father, and I doubt she does. She dropped this wee little Down Syndrome, non-verbal Autistic, recovering from heart surgery, blessing of smiles on my dad's doorstep. He's 10 now!! If I ever see her again, I'll hug her and thank her for not aborting my beautiful nephew. He may not be able to speak, but he smiles forever and gives the BEST hugs!

This might sound weird but I grew up Catholic and strayed from church as a teen but I heard God’s voice on occasion. I promised God if I would not get an abortion. I PROMISED God. I got pregnant at age 30 in the first two months of dating a nice guy but we weren’t married and were not very compatible. We both decided to have the baby, our son. We never married and I basically raised the child alone- dad did contribute financially. We tried to make the relationship work for 6 years but he was not capable. So, I have zero regrets about NOT getting an abortion. And I feel so good about keeping my promise. My son is now almost 18. ❤
