These stories include reactions to the cruel abortion ban in Texas that went into effect Sept. 1. It blocked abortion beginning at approximately six weeks of pregnancy — before many people even know they’re pregnant. The ban is causing emotional trauma and devastating, lasting harm to patients’ health and well-being.“I grew up in a conservative, religious community in Iowa. I have struggled with my mental health for well over a decade.
“Twenty years ago, at age 31, I had a 3-and-a-half-year-old son and was pregnant with my second child. At a routine 20-week ultrasound, my husband and I found out that the baby had several heart defects. We went to see several specialists to see if his heart could be fixed after he was born. They told us that he would continue to live and grow in utero, but would die after birth. His heart had too many problems to fix.
In the waiting room, I felt like I had inflicted a self-derogatory mark or scarlet letter on myself because I was getting an abortion. In my case, I knew being a parent wasn’t for me at the time. I wanted to pursue my career, be a more established parent, and couldn’t afford a child.
