I'm sitting at Planned Parenthood DC waiting room- AMA

[Anonymous]

Do you know how much it costs?

[Anonymous]

I have 2 kids. The waiting room is 1/2 full. People are couples, family, with their friends. Seems like they are running a little bit behind but it's not swamped or anything. People are chatting. There are smiles. No one is crying.

My insurance covers that. My understanding is if you pay out of pocket, it's around $475

I had my Nexplanon implant put in at Planned Parenthood and was really pleased with the experience.

Abortion

Sending you good thoughts, OP. It's never a decision made lightly, and glad you have a supportive spouse with you.

Are you open to more questions about the abortion or just about the PP experience?

Ask away. It was an unplanned pregnancy. We both decided not to keep it.

I'm sorry you have to go through this.

i feel sorry for the baby.

Baby not ever -- it's an embryo.

Were you on birth control? If so, do you know how/why it failed?

How far along are you? Will you do the surgical abortion or medical (pill) abortion?

Have you ever had an abortion before?

Do you want kids in the future?

On the pill. Best guess is there was a break in daily medication when it ran out between orders. Won't make that mistake again.

6 weeks. First abortion. Chose surgical. We are done with kids.

Good luck, OP. Are there other adults there waiting to see someone or is it mostly teens or what?

Is your husband open to getting a vasectomy if you are done with kids?
