Patricia saw her baby after taking abortion pill: ‘The guilt… is impossible to describe’

Patricia was told “there was nothing to worry about” when she received the abortion pill from her doctor. In the latest video from Live Action’s “I Saw My Baby” series, she describes the horrifying reality of what actually occurred.

Patricia says her doctor downplayed the severity of taking the abortion pill, telling her that she “would have some bleeding, and possibly clotting, and that complications resulting from pills were rare. I believed him,” she says.

However, she explains that within one hour of taking the abortion pills at home, she knew the doctor was lying. “I was in the worst physical pain of my life — worse than childbirth.”

Patricia describes experiencing bleeding so heavily she thought she was dying, while passing blood clots the size of baseballs.

“The worst part was sitting on the toilet, and I felt myself pass a clot that felt strange. I looked in the toilet and I saw my baby. It had a head, a body, and tiny arms and legs.”

The abortion pill is a two-step regimen that involves the drugs mifepristone and misoprostol. The woman takes these drugs, often at home, alone, without the support or oversight of a doctor. The baby is starved of nutrients in her womb and she then delivers the body. The process is described in this video by former abortionist, Dr. Noreen Johnson.

Sadly, experiences like Patricia’s are not unique. Studies have shown the abortion pill to be four times more dangerous than surgical abortion. Complications include heavy bleeding, severe cramping, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and headaches.

One study found that six percent of “known outcomes” from the abortion pill were severe enough to result in emergency room or urgent care visits. In addition to the physical complications, many women have experienced severe trauma after taking the abortion pill and seeing their dead child.

“The shame and guilt that I felt at that moment as I was forced to flush my aborted baby down the toilet, it’s impossible to describe,” Patricia concludes.
