Answer
Emily,

I would recommend that you get married and try to relax. It is possible that the abortion could have affected your fertility but sometimes when you get stressed about trying to have a baby, it just alters your normal cycle.

So I suggest getting married. Relax and have a good time with your husband. Then see what happens about a baby. Also, your desire to have a baby could be a side effect from your forced abortion. There is emotional healing that you can find to help you. If you live in the U.S. I can send you a packet of emotional healing material. Please send me your mailing address to CHERYL51@aol.com and I'll send you the info.

Also, email me just so we can talk more.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
