In a video released by March for Life UK<\/a>,\u00a0a post-abortive woman named Natalia recalled how she\u00a0became pregnant at age 20. She and her boyfriend initially decided to abort. But as time went on, Natalia began to feel attached to her baby and didn’t want to have the abortion. She said:<\/p>\n

[I] kind of felt this kind of attachment, this kind of love for my child that I didn’t even know. But at the same time, I didn’t want to get comfortable with the idea, because I knew the baby’s father was so against me having it … It was almost like I was scared to talk and stick up for what I thought. Every time I brought it up, I was always shut down\u2026 [H]e’d be like, “Well, if you keep it, I’m not going to stay with you.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Not only did Natalia\u2019s boyfriend insist on the abortion, but her friends did too. She said her friends, who’d had abortions themselves, told her that having the baby would ruin her life.<\/p>\n

Natalia went twice to an abortion facility, only to break down sobbing as soon as she walked in the door. Each time, she left without having the abortion.\u00a0Finally, on her third visit, Natalia went through the \u201ccounseling\u201d process. She wasn\u2019t given an ultrasound. Instead, the abortion workers just estimated that she was seven weeks along, and said she was eligible for the abortion pill.<\/p>\n

Natalia couldn\u2019t bring herself to take the pills at the facility, so the workers gave them to her to take home.<\/p>\n
