Nobody will judge you here. I can't imagine how difficult the decision must have been but you made the choice based on the situation at the time and that is the best anyone can do. I've never had an abortion myself but I do understand regret over past decisions and how it can really stuff with your mind.
Jo - no matter how much you think you're prepared for it, the pg announcement from others is always a shock and hard to deal with. It's perfectly normal for you to feel this way.
(Jo, just as an aside, I read "Natural Fertility" for a while when I was starting TTC and all it made me feel is guilty and inadequate because I wasn't getting pg despite all the healthy eating, exercising etc. Once I read "Getting Pregnant" by Robert Jansen, I realised I wasn't a freak and I needed medical help. I ended up chucking "Natural Fertility" under the bed and I think it's stayed there ever since.)
