She Saved Her Baby's Life After Taking an Abortion Pill and Changing Her Mind: One Woman's Incredible Story

A woman who attempted to have a chemical abortion and then changed her mind is speaking out, sharing her emotional story and the happy ending she experienced after abortion reversal treatment. Mackenna recently shared her journey with Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative law firm, appearing on camera while holding her baby girl — a child successfully born after Mackenna abandoned her plans to abort and sought help. "My story — our story — actually starts in late December 2023, when I had found out that I was pregnant," she said, providing her jarring story while holding her young daughter. "And I just remember being flooded with an array of emotions, none of which, I'll be honest, were happy, or joyful, or excited." She has since joined CBN News to expand upon her story and share futher details. After finding out she was pregnant, Mackenna ordered an abortion pill regimen online and had it shipped to her home. Despite internal hesitation, she took the first pill."Immediately, upon taking it, and in the days leading up, I knew that that was not the right decision for me," Mackenna said. "I continued to convince myself that it was, that it was the right decision for me, my family." But she quickly realized taking the pill "was a major mistake." She immediately did research and then reached out to the Abortion Pill Rescue Network for help getting access to abortion pill reversal and was provided with what she called "life-saving care." "They put me in contact with a nurse practitioner Chelsea Mynyk, who prescribed me that progesterone," she said. "It's absolutely because of her and that abortion reversal medication that I got to look at her beautiful face today." Mackenna said she was sharing her powerful story to help other women in similar positions know that abortion reversal is an option that "clearly works," despite noting she lives in a place where abortion pill reversal isn't able to be legally provided.
