Question: I have a question about what a doctor would do in a situation where a patient really needed some help. Iwas about 6 weeks pregnant whenever I decided to give up my baby. I never wanted to give it up, but the state in my life I could not have a child especially with the boy who got me pregnant. The father is heavily into drugs and abusive, and the child I want, I want to be able to give it everything with the right partner. I recently got out of this relationship with this man and he has moved three hours away, but I still have a doctors appointment scheduled in which he will be attending to get results. I was thinking of going to the doctor and explaining my situation to him. Possibly telling this guy that I had a miscarriage instead. I understand that it would be lying to him, but I would rather lie and protect myself then get him angry to the point where it is not safe. I believe I did the best thing for my baby. I have so much guilt because of it because it was my stupid mistake of getting pregnant in the first place but no child would be raised right in the situation I got myself into. Please help. I need to know if my doctor can help me.

I'm not asking about getting an abortion, I have already had the abortion without seeing a doctor before hand. I'm asking if my doctor would protect me by telling the almost father of the child that I had a miscarriage instead of an abortion. If I tell him about the abortion it would anger him, and like I said, he has a past with abuse. I'm trying to get him out of my life and I believe this would be the best way.
