hi every1 im heading to the clinic to pick up the pack
im 6 weeks pregnant
can any1 share their storys with me
as im pretty much going tru this alone
feel so anxious and afraid
did any1 use ponson painkillers that what i have been prescibed ? really looking for support tru it all thanks so much

Are you taking the tablets, rather than surgical?

@LemonBreeland hi yes im taking the pills
ive just got home and will take 1st one at 6pm
so nerve wrecking the unknown

You will get strong period pains. Probably best to try and keep moving around, I didn't and it just made me think about the pain. Best to take painkillers as it can get quite bad. It can take several hours to come away and will be like a heavy period. You won't really see anything, just clots and stuff. Try not to worry.

@LemonBreeland thanks a million i have just taken 1st one at 7pm anxiety got the better of me but know this is right for my family im hoping by monday i will be some what doing ok,
can i ask how long you were

I cant quite remember it was a few hours. You will bleed for a few days, but yes by Monday you should be fine. The cramping only really lasts while you lose the pregnancy.

It took about 4 hours for my cramps to start. Quicker than expected. It got quite painful but not unbearable. The pain killers helped so take them. Get yourself a hot water bottle cuddle up under a blanket. I didn’t see anything and was same stage as you. I’m three years on and don’t think about it often. I don’t regret it as I know it was the right choice but I was very sad at the time that I was in that situation and had to make that choice. So if you do feel sad, don’t automatically confuse it with regret. Sorry you’re going through this. I hope you’re ok

We're just moving this over to our pregnancy choices topic.

@LemonBreeland thank you been 2 hours now feel grand no nausea as yet

I hope it all goes smoothly for you. It's not a pleasant thing to do, but it is sometimes for the best.

@Readysetcake thank you so much feel grand after 1st pill
was told to expect something at 4 hours after too
im going to take the pain killers hour b4 and every 4 hours so hopefully wont be to long passing
im relieved ive started did feel bit sad but i know i will feel diff emotions im expecting to.
glad u had a safe and easish time and doung good now
