Jen*, a 21-year-old, got an abortion at eight weeks on Tuesday, hours before SB 8 went into effect
I had to leave early from work twice last week—on Sunday and then on Tuesday because I was vomiting and I kept getting dizzy and almost passing out. I ended up taking off the rest of the week too. This whole past week I’ve felt so nauseous every day just thinking about if I had to stay pregnant. It might have been partly morning sickness, but it also was anxiety. I was just sitting in bed watchingand sitting with my cat, cuddling her. I was so sad and worried and I couldn’t get out of bed.
The clinic was packed. There were about 30 to 35 chairs in the clinic, and all of them were full at some point. Some people were standing up waiting and people were also waiting outside and in their cars. Because the clinic overbooked themselves to fit everyone in, people had to wait a few hours before they could be called to come in for their procedure. They were going full throttle trying to get to everyone.
If I had to leave the state ... I probably would have had to wait longer to have the abortion so I save up. I was really worried I would end up having to have the baby.
