Anyone else waiting for an abortion?

[Star90]

Hello,
I have an abortion booked in for the 17th. Just wondered if anyone else was waiting for theirs and how they are feeling?
I’m struggling to take my mind off the wait although I know it’s for the best xx

Hi

I am waiting - Wednesday next week. I am 100% sure of my decision but it doesn't make the wait any easier. To be honest I have been thinking about it loads as I keep feeling dizzy and sick so it keeps reminding me :(

Sorry you are in the same position.

I also have been feeling sickness. It’s the tiredness that’s hitting me like a brick! Are you having surgical? Xx

No I am having medical. I had it once before for a miscarriage - it was truly awful but I know what to expect now so am happy to go with that.

To be honest I just want it done asap and to move on. Not sure what my emotions will be after but I'm still shocked and angry that I have got myself in this position.

Have you been scanned and booked in for the surgical?

Take care - we are in an awful limbo at the mo :( xx

I’m having it all done on the day and hopefully the mirena inserted to stop this from happening again 🙏 how far gone are you? We really are, it’s consuming every thought at the moment and with 3 kids already and a demanding job I’m sinking 😩

I went today to take the first pill. Going back on Monday to complete the termination. I don't feel as bad as I expected to. Maybe it will hit me on Monday. I wish this had all happened a year later as I want another child but not when my youngest is so young and we're coping in a shoe box of a house.
I'm trying not to think about it. I've convinced myself I'm not actually pregnant but obviously Monday it's all going to get real 😪

Aw, I am in the same position. You know what’s best for your family and although this is extremely hard it would be even harder to continue the preg and struggle! It’s nearly over for you now xx

I've got a first appointment next wednesday and I'm dreading it even though I know its the right decision for me and my family. I can't believe I find myself in this position when I've got kids / I know what I'm doing etc etc. i could be anywhere between 5-8 weeks at the moment, 6-9 when I get there next week. People's stories of the process don't make for good reading :(
I'm very sad and very scared.
