The Guiding Star Project blog has the story<\/a>\u00a0of a woman who was forced to go to an abortion facility after her baby died in utero. She went through the whole abortion process although her child was already dead. Haunted by the emotional and physical pain she witnessed in the post-abortive women at the facility, she shares her story.<\/p>\n

The blogger\u00a0was late in her pregnancy when her baby\u2019s heartbeat stopped. Her doctor arranged for her to have her child removed from her womb. He sent her to facility for what would be a two day process. On the first day, laminaria sticks would be put into her cervix (the neck of the womb) to dilate her. These would slowly widen the entrance to her womb. On the next day, the surgery would take place,\u00a0removing the child’s body.<\/p>\n

While leaving the abortion facility\u00a0on the first day, she was approached by a pro-life sidewalk counselor and realized, for the first time, that she had been referred to an abortion facility and not a regular doctor’s office.\u00a0 She was horrified that her baby would be taken from her in a facility where other babies were killed.<\/p>\n

She and her partner called the referring doctor and her insurance company but were unable to convince them to send her somewhere else. Shattered with grief and hearing the doctor talk about the serious health risks of not going through with the surgery, they had no choice but to give in and go back the second day.<\/p>\n
