Through some unexplained phenomenon, the nations randomly become pregnant (sex not required) with the nation dying and the baby replacing them.

* ''Series/LineOfDuty'': Lindsay Denton tells Steve she had an abortion once as her then-lover refused to help her and denied the baby was even his. She says it's the worse thing she's ever done, and deeply regrets it.
* ''Literature/LittleFiresEverywhere'': In the series [[spoiler:Lexie]] has an abortion, though she's shown to have pretty mixed feelings about it, but no one else (who knows anyway) tells her this was wrong.
* ''Series/ThePractice'': Rebecca mentions having an abortion once to Eugene, and seems unhappy about it, or has mixed feelings. Later Helen claims she had an abortion at 19 when trying to get a confession out of a girl who killed her late-term baby. She actually didn't though, but claims to have sympathy for the girl.

[[AC: Fanfics]]
* Averted in [[http://www.toplessrobot.com/2010/03/fan_fiction_friday_the_other_story.php this]] ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' fanfic, which Topless Robot found so disturbing that they refused to provide running commentary on it.

* "Oasis" by Music/AmandaPalmer is a [[LyricalDissonance cheery little number]] about a girl who gets raped, ends up getting pregnant, and gets an abortion with absolutely no regrets. Mind you, she ''is'' a bit more focused on the fact that Oasis wrote back to her...
** There's also "Mandy Goes To Med School", by Palmer with her band The Dresden Dolls, a slinky, jazzy tune about [[CrossesTheLineTwice operating a back-alley abortion clinic in an SUV]]. Both could be considered satirical {{Protest Song}}s.
[[AC: Webcomics]]
* The first strip of ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'' has Davan sending a wire hanger to an old girlfriend who's having a baby shower. [[http://somethingpositive.net/sp09222002.shtml A later series of strips]] would have him escorting another old girlfriend to an abortion clinic. (For the record, neither child has any chance of being his.)
* ''Very'' much averted in ''WebComic/AnsemRetort'': when Aerith gets pregnant, she has a brief moment of wondering if she could really go through with the abortion, then goes to Zexion to get it done. She shows zero remorse or guilt for it, and Zexion and Axel try to feed the fetus to Sora. Yeah, it's a BlackComedy.

* Foxxy Love in ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether'' apparently gets them on a regular basis, but considering [[BlackComedy what type of show it is]] that's not very surprising.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpyAdultPartyCartoon'', one of the episodes involves [[MisterSeahorse Stimpy believing he's pregnant]] with Ren. After Ren is told about it, he immediately [[BlackComedy pulls out a hanger and starts approaching Stimpy with it]]. Thankfully, he's promptly persuaded not to do it.
* In ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'':
** Cartman teaches a group of students at an InnerCitySchool "the white people method of cheating." One of his students is upset because she is pregnant and won't be going to college. She tells him as a Catholic she thinks abortion is wrong but Cartman tries to convince her that abortion is the ultimate form of cheating and thus she must have one.
** In "Kenny Dies" he convinces a woman who ''wanted'' her baby to get an abortion so the stem cells could be used to save Kenny's life. Except [[spoiler:[[MoralEventHorizon it was actually a plan]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext to get pizza]]]]. Though this one could be debated, as he didn't come up with that plan until long after he started getting stem cells to help Kenny.
** When Mr. Garrison gets [[EasySexChange his sex-change operation]] he is excited to be pregnant, ''just'' so that he can get an abortion. He's then surprised to find out male-to-female transsexuals can't become pregnant.
** Cartman's mother contemplates getting an abortion... of Cartman... years after his birth. She goes on a crusade to get fortieth-trimester abortion legalized, only to finally realize she was getting it mixed up with adoption.
** In the Woodland Critter ChristmasEpisode, Stan has to get three lion cubs trained to do an abortion to prevent [[EnfantTerrible the birth]] of TheAntiChrist. [[spoiler:They are too late to abort the birth, though the skills come in handy after TheAntiChrist is absorbed into Kyle.]]
