Home Medical termination

[Mumto3ggb]

Hi please don’t judge. I had my first telephone consultation today she just asked me some medical questions & my reason for wanting a termination, I have my next telephone appointment Friday with a nurse and then she said my pills will be shipped same day. I’m about 5/6 weeks & im absolutely terrified I had a termination about 8/9 years ago and it was a horrible experience as some tissue got stuck in my cervix and I just kept bleeding heavily and passing clots the size of oranges back then I was around 8/9 weeks pregnant. Has anyone had a bad experience but been ok 2nd time I suffer terrible with anxiety so my mind is telling me the worst 😢

@Relaxing2 take deep breaths hun they can’t hurt you, I’m calmer then I thought I would be but nothing is happening as of yet. Are you over the worst of it? X

I don't think I am yet no hun I'm still in a lot of pain xx

@Relaxing2 have you taken the extra 2 pills? I’m cramping but have my hot water bottle and it’s helping loads x

I haven't no hun forgot all about them xx

@Relaxing2 my bleeding is ramping up and so are the cramps I’m so scared x

Aww sweetie what is it that your scared of? What's your mind telling you xxx

@Relaxing2 I’m scared something going wrong I’ve passed clots but the cramps are still coming and the bleeding is still heavy so don’t think I’ve passed the pregnancy how are you doing now x

I no that feeling to well hun and yeah I'm doing ok ish I'm playing the Xbox lol keep my mind racing do you feel abit better yourself now? X

@Relaxing2 I’m too scared to even get off the toilet to do anything.

I’m glad your keeping your mind going & I feel better once I feel I’ve passed everything and the bleeding slows I didn’t expect it to be like this x

Hi all looking for some advice. I am currently taking the second part of the medical process and I am absolutely terrified. I have read so many horror stories on line. I am only around 5 weeks. I am doing this all alone as I can only video call my partner at the moment due to covid restrictions 😭 I could really do with some support.

@Susie780 we are currently going through the second stage of it & although is not pleasant it’s manageable I’m currently just sat on the toilet as I feel better that way. Get yourself a hot water bottle and pain relief we’re here x

Thank you. I have a hot water bottle ready and I have taken ibuprofen about a hour ago. So now it’s just time to wait. Really don’t want to take the codiene they provided in the pack unless necessary as I’m not keen on the side effects x

Hey❤️ @Mumto3ggb and @Relaxing2 and @Susie780 how are you doing xx?

I still didn’t pass any clots but my bleeding has significantly gone down. Still have minor cramps though … I have gotten my mind off the situation by watching soccer lol! My friend called to check up on me and surprisingly I had almost forgotten I was in the process!

@Susie780 I took cocodamal and ibuprofen I had to the cramps aren’t nice but I’m a wimp I don’t like taking cocodamal either they make me feel spaced out you’ll be fine I’ll more then likely be here all night so if you want a vent chat or whatever I’m here x

@AlmostEng I’m glad your feeling okay I’m doing okay I’ve passed a few clots but I’m just sat on the toilet as it’s easier although it’s not hood for the back x

Hope everyone is doing ok! Cramping has started completely manageable at the moment. I’ve started bleeding - it’s just like a normal period at the moment. I can’t work out if I feel sick or hungry so will try and eat a little bit in a minute. We can do this!!

@Susie780 I was the same I tried to eat but couldn’t manage much x

I took cocodamol with mine but it also makes me feel funny too I've just kept busy busy and how are you doing @Mumto3ggb been thinking of you x

So I’ve just passed my first clot (I didn’t look) If it continues like this it will be very very manageable! Does anyone know if you have to take the remaining 2 tablets if you are already bleeding and passing clots? I’ve taken 4 tablets about 3 hrs ago.

@Relaxing2 @Susie780 I’m not too bad back on the toilet bleeding seems to slow then pick back up I’ve passed a fair amount of clots but I don’t think I’ve passed the pregnancy & was thinking the same with the other 2 pills x

TW ⚠️
I’ve passed a clot which was a tiny grey/white sac with a black dot …. I’m assuming that is the pregnancy? Te cramps are pretty consistent now and looks like I’ll be taking another 2 ibuprofen & getting a hot water bottle. But so far it’s really nothing like I expected.

@Susie780 yeah I’d say that was more then likely the pregnancy I’m scared as I haven’t passed anything like that just some largish clots but my cramps aren’t as bad as before x

Apparently you don’t always see the sac, but passing clots is a good thing. I’m just very bored at the mo as can’t move from the toilet but the cramps have really died down x

@Susie780 I was the same with the toilet I literally sat on it for 2 hours now I’m on and off as I feel abit better I do get the odd gush but I’m not soaking a pad or anything x

How is everyone?

Thought I’d give an update for everyone and future people searching the internet like we all did.

So I took the first pill Thursday 6:30pm had a few cramps then about 26hours after starting spotting

Took the second lot of tablets Saturday at 3pm by about half 4 the bleeding had started and the cramping. I went for a wee and just stayed there as the cramps were ramping up about 15minutrs after I started losing clots I’d get cramps and then seemed to pass a clot and the cramp would ease. I sat on the toilet for around 2 hours passing clots I didn’t see anything that resembled a sac but I did pass a fair few the pain eased and So did the bleeding it’s 11:20 and I’m still having some cramps but bleeding isn’t all that bad. I will add I was an absolute mess On the days leading up and kept putting it off for the fear but it was manageable but something I will never ever do again
