Rape survivors who became pregnant by their rapist have revealed what it's like - and what they decided to do about it - in a series of powerful confessions.

Many of the victims, some incredibly young when the assaults occurred, opted for an abortion - with some feeling they made the right decision and others having regrets.

Others revealed they followed through with the pregnancy and gave birth to their rapist's child and are glad they did so.

But one thing was conveyed clearly in the anonymous posts shared on Whisper: the terrifying nature of having to make a life-changing decision shortly after a traumatising ordeal.

But for some of the women, the decision was made for them because they miscarried.

'I got pregnant at age 13 by my rapist and had a miscarriage. This is the first time I've ever told anyone,' one woman revealed.

One woman felt incredibly relieved when it happened, admitting: 'I had a miscarriage today and I couldn't be happier. I found out a week ago I was pregnant by my rapist.'
