To think my abortion has failed TRIGGER WARNING

Just looking for some reassuring words and others experiences similar to mine...
Had a medical termination yesterday at 7 weeks.
Took the first tablet on Tuesday afternoon. Inserted the 4 tablets last night around 9pm. Started light bleeding about two hours later but no cramps, passed two small clots together a couple of hours after that and still no heavy bleeding or cramps. Called the provider during the night to say and the nurse said it sounded like it wasn’t progressing enough so take the spare two tablets they send. Took them and went to bed expecting to be woken up with cramp and passing, slept all through the night til 8am without any pain or clots and there was just a bit of blood on my pad however when I went to the toilet I passed another two small clots. Nothing since, just normal end of period bleeding. Called them back after the 8am clots and another nurse said wait until tomorrow night (but I was told it should happen within about 8 hours of taking the tablets) I really don’t feel as though I’ve passed the pregnancy and have just had a few small clots. Has any one else experienced this?

There has been a few posts about this over the last few years and the woman have eventually started to bleed properly. Please don't worry. Try have a bath and chill out if you can. Take care xxx

No advice but wanted to send hugs. Maybe try to relax a little (easier said than done I know!)

Not exactly the same but I had a missed miscarriage and they tried to medical management which is with the same pills used for an abortion. I had 4 tablets, waited 3 days, nothing happened so I ended up needing a d&c.
Good luck!

I’m hoping it has already happened as I’ve passed 5 clots but I just imagined I would know when I passed the actual pregnancy

I’ve had a miscarriage at that point and it just could have been a period. There was nothing obvious to see.
