Abortion scan please please help desperate

[tryingtobestronger]

I went for a scan yesterday, assuming Id be having my abortion on Wednesday and Thursday of this week.

My lmp dates suggest im just over 7 weeks.

My scan showed I was around 5. They said I need to go back in two weeks time to redo the scan as they need to see a embryo and all they saw was a pregnancy sac (normal for 5 weeks).
I am so upset. Will I be over 9 weeks when I go back? Nurse said no- I will be around 7 weeks.
What date did your scan go by?
I'm really struggling, have no one to talk to and I'm so confused . Please someone help im begging you.

Sounds difficult and that you have mixed feelings? You don't have to do it...

Are your heart and head in turmoil about what to do?

I had surgical. I was thirteen weeks by the time it came so my hospital didn't offer medical and I didn't want to go away and come back again just wanted it over in one day as I'd waited so long. So I went the next day.

I don't want to do it by myself. And I'll have to. So my heart and head are kind of in the same place. I'll want my husband here for scans. For the birth.

I was upset when I went for the abortion scan cos I was the only one there without their partner. That would be magnified if it was a birth.

God this waiting is torture

Been keeping busy though. Cleaning and town to buy school uniform. And in the garden too

I won't be with the dad for the abortion and I wasn't when I gave birth last year he was asleep at home whilst I was having our son

You do seem like you're not 100% in abortion though :(

wow

No I am 100%.

I wish I could take the pills right now. Are you still nervous or feeling ok?

Really nervous and my symptoms seem to be getting worse or they're in my head or linked to exam stress!

I understand wanting to take the pills right now I would if I could too the waiting is torturous isn't it!

How are your exams going?

Do you have any pregnancy signs.

I have sore boobs, can't stop eating or I feel nauseas , bloaty and tired all the time.

Not very well :( devastated! I think it's because my minds elsewhere.

I never had any symptoms with my some except exhaustion and lightheaded/fainting it appears to have come back.. Worse! I had nausea this morning but I'm hoping it's linked to nerves. I have anaemia so I'm worried it will impact what my options are on Saturday :(

Oh no, try and keep focused. I know it's hard but I guess it will be over soon for the both of us.

Why don't you take some ion supplements? Is that allowed do you think?

How are you pregnant if you never see your husband?

I obviously do see him sometimes.

Ginger I suspect OP does see her husband obviously just not often. Your comment comes across as though you're being facetious

I'm on iron supplements the max dosage :(

Ah I guess being anaemic is not too rare? Maybe they see it lots and will know the best option for u. Will you actually have the first pill on Saturday then do you think

According to BPAS they do the first pill the same day and sometimes ask you to come back later on for the others depending on how far you are etc. Making the appointment is classed a your consultation!

The clinic I'm going to has been known to do surgery the same day too.

I hope I can have everything done as fast as possible I have exams next week then I'm working in a hospital in Romania for two weeks the week after! Hasn't come at the best of times but I suppose it never does

Fingers crossed they manage to fit you in quick. You have lots going on!
Cos I got turned away last week, I'm worrying same will happen on Monday

Another day down

You won't get turned away, you will either have a viable pregnancy and they can sort you out or your pregnancy hasn't been viable and have to see if you miscarry.

My sisters friend has just had an abortion (she doesn't know about me but was talking about it) she had to go back because at first there was just the yolk sac and nothing else she had to wait 3 weeks but when she had her scan and there was something there she got her first set of pills that day

My anxiety is officially through the roof I've convinced myself I'm having an ectopic pregnancy (I'm not even in much pain more niggles) but I can't get out of my head to convince myself otherwise :(

A few days before my scan, I promise I thought I had an Etopic. Had all the 'signs'. I was positive Id either be four months gone , or she'd say Etopic.
(At one point I had googled so much I had chlamydia- impossible) .

I genuinely think our brains are playing the mot cruel tricks on us.

I said 'signs' , because I didn't. I just now and again had twinges in my hip/side lower hip. No pain as such

Scrolling through the medical abortion stories on here again and confusing myself. One person says a little pain, next person says worst pain and screaming.
Some saying failed abortion and had to have surgery weeks later.
I'm crying. I am so scared.

Why can't I know what it'll be like
