Question
i had an abortion 8 weeks ago today and just found out last night that im preg. i never even got a period in between i dont understand how this happens and how will i be able to tell how far along i actually am with no period for a time line?

Answer
Hi Becky,

Thanks for your question. Please consult your physician as I am not a medical professional. Do you know for sure that you are pregnant and did you take a test? Just curious to figure out what happened. I did just find some information. Two women said in an article that they got pregnant and hadn't a period just like you. They had to have ultrasounds and find the due date out from that. If you go to http://www.optionline.org you can find a local pregnancy resource center if there is one in your area. They usually give free ultrasounds. You can call them at 1-800-395-HELP
Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and tell me what happens.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
