for those women who have had a STOP?

I had a surgical termination of pregnancy in 2003. I now am TTC with my fiance, we have been trying for 5 months now, I worry now that my termination years ago may have been my only chance of being a mother...so for anyone else who has also had a STOP did you worry about future conception? And did you finally get to hold your own child in your arms??

    I have friends who have had abortions - most of them are now mums,one of them had a late term abortion as well and she has a son just a month older than my son (they are both 4).This same mum also had an early abortion,then a miscarriage and she had her daughter 10 months later.It takes an average of 6 months to conceive.Stop worrying!Your abortion is very unlikely to have caused any problems,infertility is an incredible rare side effect.If you still haven't fallen pregnant when you hit a year of trying go see your doctor who can refer you for fertility tests
