[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you all for your responses! I really appreciate it. 10:54, I have started having second thoughts about traveling to NYC especially since my parents live in the suburbs, and it looks like the hospitals insists that I stay within Manhattan after the laminaria are placed. So I would have to stay in a hotel which is not at all pleasant given the circumstances. I prefer the comfort of my home. I don't know why my OB didn't mention anything about GW. They referred me to Planned parenthood and Washington Surgi Clinic. Both of which are obviously clinic setting. I have my concerns about having the procedure done in a clinic setting especially since plane parenthood mentioned that they do the procedure in one day(no laminar, etc!!) and the other clinic doesn't even discuss how the procedure will be done.[b] I wish I could read the post about the risks! [/b]Too bad it was deleted apparently. I also have fed. insurance which doesn't cover the procedure. The hospital cost in NYC adds up to 20K! So, rather than being at work today, I am sitting home debating whether to cancel my appointment for tomorrow with the hospital and just go with one of the local clinics. It is a really tough situation. I am so scared of the hormone crash afterwards that I have already made an appointment with a psychologist. I also called my ob to prescribe me with anti anxiety meds. [/quote] OP, I only have a moment and I'm on my phone, but I will try to cover this quickly: There are risks to your future fertility with late-term abortions. Cervical incompetence is an established potential side effect of forcibly dilating your cervix, but there are also risks of infection, scar tissue, and other problems that can make carrying a future baby to term impossible. Your health is not in danger right now. Your baby is growing and living and kicking. Carrying your baby to term will protect your fertility, rather than endanger it. this is not true, I had a late term abortion at 21 weeks and now I have 2 beautiful children. No fertility problems. You mentioned insurance does not cover it. The birth, perinatal hospice care, and your child WILL be covered! Research carefully, OP. termination is not the only choice.[/quote][/quote]
