Pregnant after an abortion?

I recently had an abortion on March 2nd of this year. I regret it so much. i also have a 2 year old daughter who i love so much. I allowed other people to gas my head up an bring me down with the past pregnancy so i terminated it an i regret it so much. After the abortion they said your supposed to wait 6 wks to have sex. i think i waited 4. I am still with my daughters father. The next day after sex i remember i spotted but that was it an that was on march 30. I havent bled or had a period since then. Is it possible im pregnant. I know they say its easy to get pregnant after an abortion. But i waited 4 wks. If i am pregnant i decided i am keeping this child with out a doubt i wont make the same mistake agian that tore me apart. My fiance didnt want me to do it last time an so much more then wants another child. If anyone has had an experiene like this or can help me out i would appreciate it. thanks

You faced one of the most difficult decisions you will ever have to make. Having second thoughts is normal. Beating yourself up will not change the situation. Nor will purposely trying to get pregnant as a way to get something back...... You need to learn from your choices and the consequences. Wait until you have had time to heal from this decision. I have several friends who have done exactly what your saying. Even my own daughter. But in the end, it will never take away whatever you feel about the choice you made. You did what you thought was right. Don't try and second guess. Nobody wins on a "what if" question. I hope you are not pregnant as it will only bring about more feelings and possible guilt. Try and give yourself time. Mourn your loss. I truly hurt with you as I know that women have such hard decisions to make often with negative circumstances surrounding them. Cathy

you may have waited 4 weeks, but you didn't wait the prescribed 6 weeks, and if you had unprotected sex, it is very likely you could be pregnant. it could just be the effects of the abortion. it could also be that your guilt is making you hope for a pregnancy to make up for what happened before, and you are just delaying your period with these hopes. unfortunately there is no way to tell for sure until you get those positive results. I would suggest that you visit, or atleast call your doctor and share your concerns/hopes and ask for their opinions on the matter. they can tell you if this is normal, etc. and give you advice as to when to take a test, come in for a visit, etc.
