A month later when I found out I was pregnant, I knew I couldn’t keep it. As a trans person, it’s just not safe to be pregnant, especially given how all available pregnancy resources are for women. On top of the fact that I would be having my rapist’s baby, I would have to somehow figure out a way to raise a baby while still going to school. I felt disgusted that with myself for letting this guy rape me and then disgusted with my body for betraying me and allowing him to get me pregnant. I simply wanted it out of my body as fast as I could. 2 weeks after I found out, I went alone and got an abortion. I was 6 weeks pregnant. I’m so glad I did it. While I want to be a parent someday, I don’t want to raise my rapists baby.
