You are so welcome to get in touch with us.
We are here to listen without judgement; a safe space to find information and life-affirming help.
HOPE Pregnancy has been shaped by women who have been there, we understand something of the pressures.
A lot of honest and self-aware women ask, 'why did no one warn me?!'
Many tell us, even if they felt some immediate relief:
- With more of the facts – they would have not gone ahead with an abortion
- Abortion didn't help them – instead they suffered significant physical, emotional and spiritual pain
Under pressure to act quickly, many say they didn't see another way forward. Just one loving 'you can do this' supportive voice could have made a big difference to their decision.
Some also say that they felt silenced – unable to speak up to protect their baby.
Of course, lots of women who have been through abortion still advocate for it. Many others experience bereavement – see Hope for you for some of their stories.
We have compassion and hope for those who suffer distress and struggle to recover after abortion.
If you are interested we can connect you with further support: find friendship with others recovering, and peace and hope in Jesus: Post Abortion Support for Everyone – PASE
