In most Harry Potter fanfics, a pregnant women keeps and raises her baby and has it without complications - no matter her age or life circumstances. Here, I'm compiling the small number of stories that deal with alternative scenarios. I take fics where a woman gets an abortion, has a miscarriage or unwillingly terminated pregnancy, or gives her child up for adoption. Because it's such a rare category, I'll also take fics where a woman very seriously considers abortion or adoption and doesn't go through with it. No MPreg will be accepted, as it's not to my taste.
For a list of all pregnancy fanfics, please see Lira Snape's Female Pregnancy list.
