#rencistka z najwyższym stopniem niepełnosprawności samotna matka trójki dzieci

[trzpiotka]

for the people confused about “terminating your own pregnancy” being legal in Poland: it’s not prohibited to take abortion pills, for example if you bought them for yourself in another country. if you got them from a friend they could be charged with helping you in performing an abortion. 

abortion here is legal only in the cases of 1) rape/incest and 2) serious health risk for the pregnant person. in reality it still doesn’t work in most cases, since it’s difficult to prove one was raped in general, and especially before the 12th week mark; health risk is also quite vague and rarely used (e.g. check out the notorious Tysiąc v. Poland case from the European Court of Human Rights)

another pregnant woman died in poland because the doctors waited for the fetus to die on its own while ignoring her sepsis symptoms (there was NO CHANCE of the fetus surviving, but they didn’t want to get charged with performing an illegal abortion). but yeah women around here don’t have many kids cause they just... uuuh *checks notes* party all the time
