19years old Girl Got Pregnant, She Aborted The Baby Only To Discover 3 Months Later That She Was Still Pregnant!

A teenage mother who had an abortion was shocked to discover she was still pregnant three months later.
Shannon Skinner, 19, had the abortion when she was eight weeks pregnant, having decided it was too soon to have a second child.
She and her 24 years old partner Anthony Hunt already have a 9 month old child.

But in a rare occurrence, the abortion failed and Shannon continued having morning sickness and feeling movements in her womb.
Doctors told her they were side effects of the abortion, but after three months, tests revealed the mother-of-one was pregnant - and her baby daughter had miraculously survived the induced miscarriage.

Scans have since shown that her baby looks physically fine and she is due to be born on May 7.
According to Shannon:

‘We thought she had gone. I had grieved for that baby and we'd just managed to get our heads around it. Anthony and I felt like we'd made the right decision because we were having problems and we didn't think it was right to bring a baby into that. 

I'd always been one of those people that was against abortions and hated them but I was suffering with post-natal depression. Lacie was just four months old at the time, so I had to do what I thought was best. But it was not an easy decision and I regretted it straight away after it and even at the time didn't know if I was doing the right thing.

The couple have been told that survival after a medical abortion occurs in just three per cent of cases.

They are still inside the legal 24-week termination limit but the couple say their baby girl is now too old and has been put through too much.
Ms Skinner, a stay-at-home mother, said:

We've now decided to keep the baby, as we don't feel it's right to have an abortion at this stage. She's obviously a little fighter, and we don't want to cause her any more harm. When I had the abortion it didn't feel the same as it does now - we have seen her and her heartbeat.’
