On a side note, I also read that after having an abortion it becomes increasingly difficult to conceive (naturally). Does anyone know if this is true or not. Also in my biology class I read that your chances of becoming pregnant (naturally) were 23%. Your chances increas with different methods, ie. In Vitro.
I'm not sure about that, but I do know that if you've ever had an abortion, every subsequent pregnancy is automatically considered high-risk - meaning, among other things, that you should be under the close supervision of a doctor and you are strongly encouraged to give birth in a hospital (rather than at home or in a birth center).

Multiple births are also high-risk as are certain medical conditions.
