Check with your local pregnancy center, or call the 24/7 Hotline at 877-558-0333.

Have you taken the first dose of the abortion pill (Mifeprex or RU-486)? Do you regret your decision and wish you could reverse the effects of the abortion pill? Abortion Pill Rescue may be able to help!

There is an effective process called abortion pill reversal. Contact them and APR can talk to you and offer you help.

We know that an unplanned pregnancy can be scary and many women make decisions to abort when they are terrified and stressed. We know that after some time, many women change their minds about a chemical abortion. IT MAY NOT BE TOO LATE TO SAVE YOUR PREGNANCY.

APR’s helpline will connect you with one of their team of medical professionals who can guide you towards reversing the effects of the abortion pill. They will help you every step of the way. Call now. 24/7 HELPLINE |  877.558.0333

Abortion Pills are Risky

Beyond the millions of children the abortion pill has killed, women have suffered severely from its adverse effects. Since 2000, there have been nearly 4,200 reported cases of adverse effects, including:

  • 1042 hospitalizations excluding death
  • 599 blood loss experiences requiring transfusions
  • 412 infections (69 severe)
  • 24 maternal deaths

In 2016, the FDA stopped requiring that adverse effects be reported- only deaths. The actual statistics are likely much higher.

If you have taken the first dose of an abortion pill (Mifeprex or RU-486), it may still be possibly to reverse the effects! Contact Abortion Pill Rescue now!

Adoption Information and Services

Adoption Testimonies, Information, and Resources

Love’s Choice was created to take an honest look at the painful beauty of adoption, and to provide tools to help each woman honestly assess the choices before her.

Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed as you try to make the best plan for yourself and your child.  Love’s Choice is here to help and encourage by providing facts about adoption, tools to help you plan for birth, adoption or parenting, and links to other resources.

Most importantly, Love’s Choice shares honest stories from real people who have been there – adopted children, adoptive parents, and other birthmothers.  If you choose adoption, we want you to make an informed, confident choice.  And if you choose parenting, we hope the process of answering hard questions will make you a better, more intentional mother.

Love’s Choice is not an adoption agency, nor are is it in any way affiliated with any adoption placement programs.
