More than fifty percent of women have regret after abortion. The majority of women who have abortions are depressed for years and years after the abortion.

Nearly 81% of women who receive abortions experience subsequent mental health problems according to a recently published study by The Royal College of Psychiatrists. The study demonstrates that the aftermath of an abortion can result in higher rates of anxiety, depression, various forms of substance abuse, and suicidal behavior. As a result of the study, it shows that women who have an abortion face almost double the risk of mental health problems as women who have their baby. This outcome is due to the fact that most women who are terminating pregnancies “may feel a greater sense of loss, anxiety and distress due to lack of support”, as summarized in the Guttmacher Institute, a non-profit reproductive health organization. In fact, a five-year study shows that 25% of

This paper is about miscarriages (Spontaneous abortion). Miscarriage is the loss of a pregnancy in the first 20 weeks. About 10 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in spontaneous abortion, and more than 80 % of these losses happen before 12 weeks. A lot of women today experience miscarriages without even knowing it has happened, if only all women had that experience there would be no grief. But that is not the case. So what things put a woman at high risk for miscarriages? It could be age if a older women gets pregnant and has a miscarriage, the egg is too old and there is a malfunction in the DNA make up, a young girl who’s body has not matured enough to process a strong enough egg, the women who abuses drugs, than there is the more severe cases such as illnesses and diseases and then there is the women who may have been exposed to a STD’s and it has caused her to become unfertile. It has been found that 30 to 50 % of fertilized eggs are lost before or during the process of implantation often so early that a woman goes on to get her period at about the expected time. If only this could happen to all women who have a spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) it would save so many mixed emotions.

Milad Moghtader Professor Lawler English M01B 16 September 2014 A Mother's Unfortunate Loss The relationship between a mother and child is unbreakable. It is a strong bond that no one else can understand, thus making abortion such a difficult topic to talk about. That is why the language used to talk about it is so important.

Miscarriages are rarely depicted in film, and this may be attributable to the fact that the harrowing effects of pregnancy loss may be too difficult and sensitive an issue for people to watch onscreen, especially for those who have experienced the pain of losing an unborn child first-hand. However, in as little as thirteen minutes, Marc-Andre Girard’s French-Canadian short, 12 Weeks, manages to encapsulate the agonizing loss of one family’s unborn child through a raw and direct engagement with an issue that society would prefer not to discuss or represent.

One of our biggest pop star Nikki Manji spoke out about her having to abort a child that she wanted when she was fifteen and till this day she grief’s over this dead baby. She spoke about the depression she went through and how her mental

Hollywood portrays this teenage pregnancy in a comedic way that entertains the audience yet informs them about the realness of teenage pregnancy. Luttrell states, “The media flurry surrounding these events featured warnings that ‘celebrity culture’ is endangering young women’s minds, glamorizing teen pregnancy when it used to be stigmatizing”(Luttrell 4). Luttrell emphasizes the large influence that the celebrity culture has a on young women and how by making something acceptable or unacceptable in their world, young women become misguided.

The pathway of care for EP and miscarriage have evolved in the recent decades, which have effected on the reporting trends of hospital admissions for EP and miscarriage. Without unified and validated databases of inpatient and outpatients data a national levels, trends of hospital admissions for EP and miscarriage are difficult to estimate, and they are falsely reported. The type of management of EP and miscarriage, and services available at maternity hospitals, such as early pregnancy units, are some of the factors that might influence on differences when reporting incidence rates found in the literature.

According to the text book Parent-Child Relations: An Introduction to Parenting by Bigner and Gerhardt (2014), miscarriage is the word known for a pregnancy that ends unplanned during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. The reasons why miscarriage happens varies but there is no exact cause and no exact way to tell when and how it can be prevented. Bigner and Gerhardt (2014) also mention that around 10 to15 percent of known pregnancies are miscarriages. This topic is important to discuss because even though 10 to 15 percent of pregnancies seem like a small amount of miscarriages, it is actually a vast majority. Miscarriage is a difficult challenge that both the mother and the father of the unborn fetus have to go through which is why more individuals need to know more about miscarriage. First I will discuss why miscarriage happens and how it can be preventable. Next, I will discuss the impacts of miscarriage on both the mother and the father. Lastly, I will discuss how parents can cope with the loss of their unborn fetus.

Pregnancy is meant to be an exciting happy time; not only for the mother, but for the whole family and friends. So, when a woman miscarries, the psychological impact/ trauma is unbearable and very devastating. The experience and feeling of loss, grief, guilt, and shame caused by a miscarriage can take a toll on everyone. These feelings can also turn into a major depression in some women and possible questions of what could have I done differently, or feeling like you had a hand it in can start to surface.

According to London et al. (2014), stillbirth is defined as the “death of a fetus or infant from the time of conception through the end of the newborn period 28 days after birth” (p. 481). In 2011, in the country of Taiwan, there were a total of 2,321 stillborn births and it was reported that 60% of the women who experienced this loss suffered from severe postpartum depression within 4 years (Tseng, Chen, & Wang, 2014, p. 219). Although it is known that the mothers of these infants suffer with traumatic stress, follow-ups after stillbirths are rare and there is no community support groups available. There is not much information available on the experience of Taiwanese women who experience a stillbirth nor is there information about the steps taken by these women to recover from their loss. Thus, this study seeks to understand the experiences of these Taiwanese women who have experienced the loss of an infant and how they cope within their society (Tseng et al., 2014, p. 219).
