My mom told me about how difficult it was for her to get an abortion before Roe. And now her granddaughters will face those same obstacles. In some ways I’m glad she isn’t here to see it. How absolutely awful for the generation of women that thought they changed the world for the better, only for the pendulum to swing back and knock them down. Ugh.

My coworker wrote me saying that Idaho is already trying to ban contraception, but then clarified it’s morning after or medical abortion pills. But it was framed as contraceptives at first. It will absolutely be the next thing The Bridge Trolls statement this morning was Roe was wrongly decided.
And yes Idaho will be one of the first states to make contraception illegal or hard to obtain. I'm sitting here asking myself if I need to move. Planned Parenthood has already started on opening a clinic right across the border in Oregon at least in SW of the state. I dont know what is going to happen in Eastern
With WY and UT both being trigger states too, I am feeling really upset to think of the vast amounts of land/people that won’t have access.

Does anyone know reputable websites to order Plan B for those of us in trigger law states? ::cries in Texan:: I will mail you as much as you want. Seriously. Any of you in any shitty anti women states, DM immediately if you need anything. I will pay whatever it takes to overnight you whatever you need.

I'm buying condoms after work. MH is getting snipped in late August but I know you have to be careful for a few months after that. I think it's time I get back on the pill for the rest of the year too. Fucking fucking fuck

Guys we just should have voted HARDER.
Fuck the Dems. Pack the court or I don't want to hear about it. They're letting a right-wing minority get away with running our country.

MH is like you're overreacting, we're not going to get pregnant. Sir, we have been lucky that in all the years we've done pull n pray that we've only had one unplanned pregnancy. And he doesn't want another kid more than I don't. I wanted another for well over a year after DS was born. Hell fucking no am I messing around anymore. I wish I'd agreed for him to get snipped last year. I know *for me* I would not be able to be pregnant and give birth and then give a baby up for adoption, at this point in my life. So condoms and pills and until that stuff is sperm free.

I don't know how to put my thoughts/feelings into words. This is where I’m at. I’m lucky I live in a blue state, but I’m tempted to schedule a hysterectomy. I called right before the ruling for a consult on a tubal. It was scheduled for September. About 20 min after the ruling was announced they called me back to ask if I wanted to come on Monday. You bet your ASS I do!

It's also important that those of us with boys raise them to be sexually responsible since the government is going to make it nearly impossible for women to help themselves. I solemnly swear to have condoms readily available for my kids when they are teenagers. I'll practically shove them at them.
Even though I do not believe MN would get rid of contraceptive availability (but never say never), I am glad I got my uterine ablation now while insurance still fully covered it as sterilization.

I'm sorry to say but if Michigan has old laws on the books that prohibit abortion and it's unclear on the legality, there is a very distinct possibility that providers will not risk doing abortions until it winds it way through the courts. Whitmer may be able to veto new laws but she can't compel a Republican legislature to make a new law that fixes the old one. So there will be legal battles and we've seen in other states that while that happens, abortions are not readily available. Don't be sorry to give bad news. It's already as bad as it can get now. Until they overturn Obergefell v. Hodges And Loving.

Yeah, I might need to push DH for his big V since I never got my tubes removed when DS was born like I had planned. I mean, if we had a woops we would keep it, that's just what I know to be true. And we can make it work and it would be a shock but it would be ok. And we're in NY where I can get an abortion easily and quickly. But why tempt fate at this point.

I wonder how many millions of similar conversations are happening right now. Fuck all this. H is scheduled for July. I leaned on him when the leak happened. We're in CA, so it's not yet urgent, but I'm still scheduling to replace my paraguard this year in addition to the vasectomy.

Aside from just not wanting more children and also having the WORST periods since I was 13, a big factor in going with the ablation is that while I don't want more kids, I also know I'd keep it as well. That's just me, and I wanted to remove that as a possibility. The only terrifying thing is that ectopic pregnancies are still possible, while incredibly rare, with ablations, and I shudder to think that I'd not be able to get an emergency D&C in that situation if abortion rights are that eroded in our state (which I'm hoping won't happen).

Thank you for this. I've already seen people saying "thank god I don't have a daughter" and it really fucking rubs me the wrong way. This affects EVERYONE.

I have another 2 years on my mirena, so if he can get in soon we'll have a decent overlap. But, condoms will be happening also.

I don't even have brain space to begin to process this. I'm not surprised, of course. But I have so much work to do today, I'm attempting to parent while doing it, and now I just want to scream.

DS2 was unplanned (our protection failed). Physically and mentally it was an exhausting pregnancy. I couldn’t do it again. I just told h he needs to get his appt scheduled for his V.

The "at conception" abortion bans and how they affect IVF are another thing to watch. I believe Oklahoma did pass one.
