Question
I am 8 weeks pregnant and I am getting an abortion.  I
have been having really bad morning sickness that last all
day and I am just really tired.  I am afraid my work if
suffering because I can't focus on anything else.  I don't
want to tell my boss I am getting an abortion but I feel if
she knew I was pregnant she would understand why I have
been acting differently.  What should I tell her?

Answer
Hi Katie,

Why are you having an abortion and would you consider another option? Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and we can talk more. Or you may want to ask your questions at the unplanned pregnancy group. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/unplanned_pregnancy_help/

Maybe you should talk to your boss because perhaps she can help you or it would help to let her know why you are having trouble at work.

When are you planning to have the abortion? Well, hope to hear from you soon.
