Answer
Dear Lauren,

Did you ever get my below answer a while back? I didn't hear back from you.

I can't tell you if you are still pregnant. You can have a free test at a local pregnancy center. To find one go to http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. If you live outside of the U.S. Then go to http://www.heartbeatinternational.org/worldwide_directory.asp

Were you supposed to go to a doctor to get a post abortion checkup? Please do that.

By the way, please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know what happens.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
