I need to abort my baby at 22 weeks and Im really stressed out about this whole situation. My husband lied to me about his past, he was already married and has a family, and I just found out. I feel I cant handle this alone. Hes been pushing me to abort the baby and his first wife is also putting pressure on me, telling me to leave him and my in-laws. I feel so trapped and overwhelmed and sometimes I think about suicide but I can't go through with it. My parents have passed away and I have no one to turn to. Can you help me figure out what I should do?

I empathize with your distressing situation; however, I must emphasize that abortion laws and regulations vary by country and region. In many places, abortion after 20 weeks of gestation is heavily restricted or prohibited. I strongly encourage you to reach out to a trusted healthcare provider, a crisis helpline, or a support organization for guidance and emotional suppor

I had a laparoscopy for ectopic pregnancy on March 12 how long should I wait before being intimate with my husband again?

After a laparoscopy for ectopic pregnancy, doctors generally recommend waiting 2-3 weeks to resume intercourse and other physical activities. This allows the incisions to heal and the body to recover. However, the decision of when to resume intimacy is ultimately yours and your husband's, and should be based on how you both feel.

I'm two months pregnant and having a hard time drinking water. Is it okay if I drink Electral powder with water every day instead? I'm really concerned about staying hydrated.

It's generally safe to drink Electral (oral rehydration solution) in moderation during pregnancy if you're having trouble drinking plain water. It helps maintain hydration and electrolyte balance, but it's important not to overdo it. If you're concerned, it's always best to consult your doctor.
