Hi all.
I had a termination last week through bpas. The actual process I found extremely painful - similar to my labour contractions and it was just awful. I bled but only passed two noticeable ‘ clots ‘ or whatever they were the entire time. I know everyone is different but contacted bpas who said that it sounded Normal and okay.

Anyway the last two nights I’ve woken up with pain , contraction type. I’ve then passed what I can only describe as fleshy, placenta type something in my pad. This has happened three times now , and I’m still pretty physically not okay. I do the school run then just rest inbetween I’m very sore down there.

I just wanted to know if anyone had anything similar after a termination , my friend had one who told me she had nothing like this after so I’m just concerned. I should say I contacted bpas again yesterday about the pain I was woken up by and they just said to rest and it is okay! So perhaps I’m just worrying for nothing but I also don’t want to ignore a problem if it’s there.

Sorry for the details and long winded post.

Thanks so anyone who replies x

Hey I think there's a specific sub forum for terminations so you may get more advice posting there
