I have the first consultation for a termination tomorrow
What should I expect?
I've been told to have a full bladder (which isn't really difficult atm)
Used first day of last period to get my date of 7 weeks
What options will I be given
So scared

I wish you a speedy recovery @helpmefeelok, don't hesitate to seek some post-abortion counselling if you feel you need it (something I wish I had done all those years ago). Wishing you all the best for your future ahead, take it easy x

Finally home
Had some toast n a brew
Now resting with hot water bottle in bed
Netflix to take mind elsewhere for a while
Hubby has been amazing n kids have done the remainder of the housework I didn't get to finish yesterday
Feel bad for lying to kids but it's best for them
The ladies n gents at the clinic were so lovely
Fell asleep within seconds n woke up to a nurse rubbing my arm
After care couldn't be faulted
First water to sip on then coffee n biscuits then wee n tummy check n dressed n given antibiotics for this evening n off home
Thank you all for yr replies

I'm pleased to hear that you were looked after by the staff and now by your family. Take care of yourself and rest for as long as you need and are able.

Good news. Glad you’re on the mend physically, you may still feel a bit emotionally wobbly. If you do, and feel that you do want to chat things through please give the Marie stopes number I linked to above a call for some post termination counselling.

Take it easy and recover gently as you start to get back to normal Flowers.

That’s great to hear OP. X

Upwards and onwards
