Failed abortion

I had a medical abortion 4 weeks ago which I found out today has failed. I am now 13 weeks pregnant. I'm booked in for a surgical abortion under GA tomorrow. The nurse said if I were to continue with the pregnancy there's a higher risk of the child having abnormalities eg limb formation and brain development. They could not see if the baby has any such abnormalities until 20wk scan. I'm torn whether to carry on with the abortion which they now strongly asvise, or continue with the pregnancy and pray that the failed abortion has not caused such damage.

I'm glad it feels like the right choice. It must feel like an end to all the stress and confusion of late.

As a pp said, be kind to yourself Thanks

@Favouritethings hy I know it's been a long Time sorry to take you back I'would really appreciate if you respond to my question.

Trust that you are well..... Honey after having medical termination you saying it failed......... My question is after a month did you have periods or spotting and was your bleeding heavy?? DID YOU HAVE CRAMPS

You saying you had termination at 4 weeks so at week 8 or 9 did you have maybe spotting?
