As for a mother who decides she cannot take responsibility for continuing the relationship with a child, the choice of what to do next may be difficult. I've talked to women who have had abortions who have felt it to be a painful event. In a clinical abortion, a child is extracted technically from the womb. I know my midwife sees women still healing from past abortions in other pregnancies. If the child inside has no place in the woman's future, it is important for the woman to communicate to herself and the baby what is happening.
Internal communication is important.
I believe in a society where women were more in touch with their bodies, the choice not to create could have been through spontaneous miscarriage or through abortion with herbs. Today, both of these occurances are unfortunately labelled as abnormal processes or procedures. I list the following to help induce periods and help avoid technological intervention within the womb.
