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.

Medical is available up to 10 weeks so you will still be within that limit at your next appointment.

Do not be so ridiculous and purchase those pills online! Have you suddenly become a medical professional in the last 20 minutes.

It's a thing called woman on web and they supply to women all around the world who had no access and seen as I have no access

I was really trying to be sympathetic up until your last post. What you are suggesting is dangerous.

You do have access what you don't have is patience!

tryingtobestronger · 09/08/2016 18:54

I am sorry

OP, there are medical professionals there who will make sure you get the best treatment.

You have access to them. You have time. Follow the advice of the health professional you have seen so far. They are trained to do their job.

It will be ok.

CrazyDuchess · 09/08/2016 18:56

Stop apologising and stop googling you are just feeding your anxiety. You need to stop until you can get to your GP in the morning as this is not a normal or healthy response.

OP, I can understand that you are frustrated and upset and it is clear that there are extenuating circumstances that are causing further stress, but you need to calm yourself down. I know two weeks may seem like an eternity to wait but it really is not and all of this will be over before you know it.

The pregnancy will be terminated. For now, you need to calm down and perhaps speak to your GP about your mental state, if you feel that may be necessary.

Buying pills off the internet is the stupidest thing you can do. There is a much, much greater chance of something going wrong and you ending up in a medical emergency or even dead. Who would look after your son then?

I actually don't understand why you are this worked up about it. Yes, it's an awful situation to be in, but it is being taken care off. Its just taking more time than you want, because the medical professionals are doing what they need to do to MINIMISE RISKS TO YOU AND TO ENSURE THAT YOUR POOR SON DOES NOT END UP IN CARE BECAUSE HIS MOTHER DID SOMETHING STUPID.

We've been there, we know how hard it is, but the doctors haven't said no, you just need to give it more time. So as difficult as it is, you need to try to put it to one side for the next 2 weeks and concentrate on your son.
It is going to be taken care of, just not right now.

OP, I reported your thread to MN for you. If you truly want it deleted, they should be able to help.

Good luck OP, I suggest you speak to someone in RL like your GP

BleakBetty · 09/08/2016 20:01

Before it's deleted:

OP, I've had a medical abortion at around the same stage as you and also wished I could've done it instantly. But it worked out. You will be fine. Yes, it is painful, I won't lie. But it is also very brief.

Take each day as it comes. Trust that the medical professionals know best. After all, they do hundreds of these procedures - it really is quite routine.

You are not a bad person to choose abortion AT ALL. You and your son will come through the other side and you'll move forward with life.

I do not regret mine.

PurpleDaisies · 09/08/2016 20:04

I wish I had the money to do this private and sort it tomorrow

Going private wouldn't make any difference. Doctors have an obligation to treat you in a safe way, and unfortunately that means you waiting a little longer to make sure that the abortion won't cause you any harm. Try and focus on the fact that you've got a plan in place-you just need to do as the doctors recommend and it will all be sorted very soon.

tryingtobestronger · 09/08/2016 20:04

Thank u. How painful will it be

OP posts:
fusionconfusion · 09/08/2016 20:20

Op I would suggest you may be having a mental health crisis and need urgent medical attention. Please seek help asap. While unplanned pregnancies are horrible for every woman your level of distress suggests you need some help before even considering the abortion further. Take care.

SirVixofVixHall · 09/08/2016 21:02

I agree with fusion here.

tryingtobestronger · 09/08/2016 22:27

It's the pain. And the worry of something going wrong. Reading this back has made me realise I need counselling.
The fact that I have no one to talk to makes it worse.

Just so frightened of the pain. I've read it's the worst pain ever, the woman felt like she was dying. Laying on the floor screaming.

OP posts:
PurpleDaisies · 09/08/2016 22:30

It isn't like that trying. You should make an appointment with your GP and theyll refer you to an impartial counsellor who can help you work through what you're feeling.
