I’m getting completely stressed out as had text saying my package is with Royal Mail with 24hr track but saying that they received it and that was 24hrs ago. I’m praying it will turn up tomorrow but if it doesn’t I genuinely feel like I’m going to have a breakdown. I already feeling suicidal having to wait any longer. If I ring bpas do you think I can pick them up as I can’t do this any longer I truly can’t.

Ring them (bpas) up if it puts your mind at ease. Ring Royal Mail up to find out where they are. They'll probably arrive tomorrow please don't worry and don't panic. I felt exactly the same. Make sure you rest and make sure you take pain relief before you take second set of pills.

@Confusedandlost1812 yep took it straight away and now done the next part and resting with hot water bottle. I would recommend taking painkillers as got bad cramps but nothing more them bad period cramps tho.

@Muddydogwalks Thank you for that. I’m severely emetophobic so have been working my self up all day.. still waiting for the postie

@Confusedandlost1812 you will be ok, try and find something to help distract yourself much easier said then done, I know. I’ve been eating cold buttery toast as want to keep my stomach settled. As I’m now having to take the last two in my mouth which I’m trying to keep calm as I’m absolutely terrified of being sick as managed 6 years off not actually being sick!

@Muddydogwalks I have my fingers crossed for you. Hopefully it’s all over soon, will update when my pills arrive. It’s nice having someone going through at the same time. No one but me and my partner know

Just took the first pill. Nervous but excited for this to be over

Muddydogwalks · 23/12/2022 11:59

@Confusedandlost1812 hope you feeling ok this morning.
I had no side effects after taking the final two tablets in between my gums. Definitely take some painkillers before taking the last two as I stupidly didn’t as was fine with the cramps until 45 mins after taking them and then had intense sharp pain for about 5 mins then I went to the toilet and must have expelled it as after I heard a plop in the toilet the pain went back to very mild cramps. But if I took more painkillers I think it wouldn’t have felt so intense at all.
But the good news is that today I feel like myself again, I just got very light bleeding. But it’s so so nice to have not have any nausea or feeling low! Definitely thought it was going to worse then what it was.
I hope it goes well for you today.
