Crap. Am I...

Got a 10 month old baby, was on the pill but came off it as the side effects were horrendous. Barely been having sex as I'm exhausted weve probably had sex twice in the last 4 weeks which he hasnt finished inside but obvious theres a chance. Period is possibly 2 days late (quite irregular and after baby and pill not really sure) I KNOW tesco tests can be wrong but what do people think of this test? Shit. Shit. Shit.

How are you feeling now? As shit as it is I'm glad we can help each other through this and talk/share if we need to, hope you are ok. My app is first thing and planning to take the tablets there and then and then 24hrs after. Hugs to you xx

Needingsupportplease · 15/04/2020 15:53

Took the first tablet this morning feeling ok about it at the moment too, hope you are ok @finallyamummy x

@Needingsupportplease it's definitely helped having someone to talk to, thank you. It's been 24 hours since I took the first tablet. Box says to take the second tablets 1-2 days later but the leaflet in the box says 36-48 hours after so now I'm dithering over whether to wait until morning. I just want this over with, not sure what to do. Glad you're feeling ok so far x

Needingsupportplease · 15/04/2020 19:37

@finallyamummy glad you're doing ok so far I feel a little relieved just scared about what's to come. I can take mine from 10am tomorrow but I'm waiting until 5PM until my husband is home so he can have my daughter and I can look after myself/sit on loo etc, the nurse just said 24-48hrs after but whenever was best for me really. Yeah it's been a major help to me aswell so thankyou xx

Finallyamummy · 15/04/2020 20:35

I'm going to do it in the morning, I don't fancy a night spent in the loo in pain now. I've not really felt pregnant today which I assume is the first tablet taking effect.

I've wrestled with my emotions quite a lot today but ultimately I haven't tried to fight for this pregnancy, I've not felt any joy or excitement, I haven't felt that maternal instinct kick in so I feel ok that I've made the right decision.

Handhold for you this morning xx

Finallyamummy · 16/04/2020 09:07

Thank you @Needingsupportplease it's done and now I'm just waiting for it all to start. Hope you're feeling ok this morning? X

Needingsupportplease · 16/04/2020 11:01

Yeah I still feel okish, mixed feelings I'm defo guna wait until hubby gets home so I dont have to worry about little one, but then I'll have tomorrow to get through on my own so hoping it all happens quick and then I just bleed. Wishful thinking. Hope your not waiting too long xx

Finallyamummy · 16/04/2020 14:37

@Needingsupportplease it started really quickly, within an hour. I'm fairly confident I've already passed the pregnancy and now it's just heavy bleeding. I've taken codeine and the cramping and backache was rough and that's really taken the edge off. I'm relieved the worst is hopefully over and now it's just like I'm on day 2 of my period.

Here if you need to talk x

Needingsupportplease · 16/04/2020 14:40

Glad to hear the worse is hopefully over hope your doing ok, I'm just scared of the pain as when I had a mmc it was horrendous. I didnt get pain relief so I've just got paracetamol and ibuprofen, I'd like to sit in the shower with the water on my belly but dont want to pass and possibly see pregnancy so doubt I'll do that. Just want it all over now x

Needingsupportplease · 16/04/2020 17:29

Wow I only put the pills in my mouth 20mins ago, bleeding already.

Finallyamummy · 16/04/2020 18:57

@Needingsupportplease I've been sitting in the loo a lot and I seem to have a gush when I do that so I've not seen anything but I did feel it. I hate using pads, can't stand the feeling of it. Hope it passes quickly for you and that you're feeling ok x

Needingsupportplease · 16/04/2020 20:22

I sat in the shower for about an hour because the cramps were painful which I bled alot and passed Tiny tiny clots I then sat on the toilet and felt bigger bits pass. I now have no pain and am bleeding but alot less than I expected so am now worried if I'll pass it all but I'm comparing to my last experience but I was 8 weeks further on.. xx

Finallyamummy · 16/04/2020 21:35

@Needingsupportplease the things we go through. Glad the pain has gone, I've still got sort of a dull ache but it's manageable , I've not taken any pain relief in a while but I may do before bed.

Hope you have a reasonable night and get some sleep. It hasn't been as bad as I thought it would be and the process with BPAS was easy and straight forward which I'm very grateful for x

Needingsupportplease · 17/04/2020 00:22

Ok I spoke too soon I'm flooding pads but not 2 in 2 hours so I'm ok but running out of knickers and pj bottoms and the bed is covered 🤦🏼‍♀️ so now I'm unsure if I've passed the pregnancy or not as thought it would get lighter? Oh I have no idea. Will see how tomorrow goes! Hope your getting some sleep xx

Finallyamummy · 17/04/2020 08:31

@Needingsupportplease oh no I'm so sorry! How are you this morning?

Finallyamummy · 17/04/2020 08:35

I'm feeling much better, sitting on the loo definitely helps I've found. Hope you're ok this morningx

Needingsupportplease · 17/04/2020 14:00

Yeah I feel good today thankyou feel pretty normal and like I'm just on my period defo feel like I made the right choice which is a nice feeling and not what i expected! Will just have to see what happens I suppose! How are you xx

Finallyamummy · 17/04/2020 14:10

@Needingsupportplease agree regarding knowing I made the right decision. There's a sense of relief, I'm trying to focus today on getting out of the funk I've been in these last couple of weeks. I'm so glad it's all over. Thank you for your support, it's been a big help x

Needingsupportplease · 17/04/2020 14:58

Glad we both feel that way. Thankyou for yours aswell it's got me through!! Keep me updated though, take care xx

Finallyamummy · 19/04/2020 08:24

@Needingsupportplease everything has calmed down now and it's just like a period. I have no regrets and day by day I feel confident in my decision. I
Hope you're ok x

Needingsupportplease · 19/04/2020 09:49

I feel the same. I pretty much have no bleeding at all, going to give them a call today as I'm worried it hasnt worked x

Needingsupportplease · 23/04/2020 19:38

@Finallyamummy how you doing xx

Needingsupportplease · 05/05/2020 11:40

Really hope you're ok. I'm 3 weeks on now and still testing positive on the over 1000hcg test :( knew I hadn't bled enough afterwards. Still spotting on off too so will be ringing again :(

Smurfsrock · 03/06/2020 15:33
