    Do not worry. You will still be able to have a baby, unless there are other complications. An abortion itself should not prevent you from having healthy happy babies. I have known several people that have had abortions (sorry to say) and every single one of them had children afterwards. I would talk to your Dr. about your concerns. Get checked out to make sure everything is fine, and then I'm sure you will be good to go!

    Abortions can be very stressful on the body, but future pregnancies are possible. However, everyone is different so I suggest speaking to your OB/GYN about your concerns since he/she will be able to examine you properly.

    Sometimes you don't get pregnant because its not your time yet. My friend had an abortion the 90's and recently had miscarriage last year but is due this month. I wanted child and it took me one year to conceive, when your time comes you will have one when you least expect it. I gave up the idea of having chil because I really thought I could once I give up, I got pregnant.

    I really hope you can. I had an abortion when I was fourteen, I know it's young, but it was my only choice at the time.I really want kids when I'm older.

    No worries, it just takes time sometimes! I had an abortion at 19. I am now 25 and I am currently 31 weeks pregnant with twins!! :) You can still have babies...

    I have had many friends who had abortions and then went on to bear happy and healthy babies. Talk to a doc but try to not worry too much.

    I had an abortion just over a month ago I was 10 weeks gone when my mum found out. She was not happy at all. As there was something wrong with the baby, there was a great risk of the abortion not being successful. I'm now worried as my stomach is still growing. If this happened to me, you can definitely get pregnant again :)
