TIKTOK: "Come With Me To See My Dead Baby To Make Sure It's Really Dead"

This was not a tiktok I expected to see opening my TikTok today.

Ashley, known as Ashley_livinginchaos on TikTok, grabs your attention to her video with the statement "Come with me to see my dead baby to make sure it's really dead." The statement is given in a bubbly tone that you would often see from someone filming an exciting adventure. But I can see through the fake bubbliness for what it really is; trauma.

After this shocking video where she goes on to explain that she has to go for 1 of 2 more scans to make sure her pregnancy is actually nonviable before allowing her to have a D&C. She discovered at six weeks due to her HcG levels not rising and having pain on her right side, that she was having a miscarriage. She was refused the D&C she asked for because they had to "make sure it is nonviable" first.

This is not her first miscarriage either, it is her 6th and so she knows what it's like to have a miscarriage.

I believe she is living in South Carolina which has very strict abortion laws as she says in her first video explaining her situation on June 11, 2026, she is headed down to Florida (the week I am writing this) "we're looking at some housing options and stuff down there so it's kind of like a vacation not vacation type of thing. Um, but Florida has basically the same exact laws, regulations, and stuff as like South Carolina does." She goes on to state the closest state she could go to have an abortion (her empty sac) is North Carolina.

She's traumatized by having to be forced to go through this grueling process where she is repeatedly told her pregnancy is nonviable. This is disgusting on so many levels.

I had a miscarriage with my 3rd pregnancy. I found out on a Sunday morning that I was pregnant and Friday night I went to bed noticing my symptoms were gone, and in the morning I was bleeding. I had done nothing to cause the miscarriage. Something just didn't go right. It was heartbreaking and traumatic but my body did its thing naturally so I didn't have to recieve a D&C.

I could not imagine having to go through what this woman is going through. But I also wouldn't choose to move to another state with the same issues when I'm on my sixth miscarriage.

These anti-aborition laws are not meant to "protect babies" (fetuses) they are meant to hurt and kill women. No one is going monthly to get an abortion. No one is aborting their babies after birth. And no one is doing late-term abortions on healthy pregnancies.

I'm tired of the government making laws regarding what I can and cannot do with my own body. I'm tired of men getting to choose if women receive medical care or not. I'm tired of someone who will never understand what it's like to be pregnant or have a period, deciding what is best for me.

Fuck. The. Patriarchy.
