GERMAN CONSTITUTIONAL COURT ABORTION DECISION ...
Lavender Rain
Have you tried seeking assistance regarding answers for your questions about abortion from a health care professional, such as a gynecologist?
alimess
The first step as LR mentioned would be to seek advice from a professional.

Good luck!

You can also go to ProFamilia, the German equivalent of Planned Parenthood. Although, the name may make you think that they are anti-abortion, they will give advice, support and medical assistance, including having a self-help group for those post-decision.
They are a charity, all advice is confidential and you may find help in English too. They are also able to give the required certificate (PDF!) for those wishing to proceed with an abortion, but remember that the limit is very tight in Bavaria (up to 12 week of pregnancy, which due to calculation method could mean up to 14 weeks).
