I made a bad choice.

I took mifepristone yesterday @ 10 weeks 3 days. I instantly regretted it and shamefully admitting I made myself 🤮 half an hour after.
Today I've had brown discharge, some lighter some darker. It's been 32 hours since tablet was swallowed.
I'm so angry at myself. I thought we were doing this then I fucked it up in a moment of weakness. We did have a scan booked for tomorrow but I'm really not sure if I should go now. I'm hoping with everything I have baby's okay but chances are they aren't 😭
I'm such an idiot.

Hey love, I just wanted to say, be kind to yourself and I would definitely go along to the scan so you'll know for definite what's going on.
How are you feeling and has the bleeding stopped?

Brickbrick · 07/04/2023 22:56

Thank you for your reply. It's still there but there's less of it. I've heard sometimes mifepristone can do the job alone but I'm keeping everything crossed that this baby is the exception

I have heard that too but I've also heard more so that women have went on to have healthy pregnancies after only taking the 1st tablets.
Did you go to the scan today?

Brickbrick · 08/04/2023 18:15

I did do to the scan and baby was absolutely fine! Had a heartbeat wiggling around everywhere. I've seen people say they still went on to lose their babies so I'm silently ecstatic, I really hope he/she is going to hang on in there! Still feeling nauseous like I had in the early days (but eating helps massively), brown blood still lingering too but I'm really keeping everything crossed for this!

So thought I'd keep a diary of this. I have saved everything that's happened to my notes app but this might just help someone in future.

Today I've had red bleeding. Again, not enough to reach and stain a pad but enough to notice on wiping. No pain today though. I'm really hoping over the next few days it calms down.

How are you doing OP? Hope the bleeding has eased off now

Thanks for checking in🥰
Today is exactly the same as yesterday, nothing much to report. I'm being referred to the early pregnancy unit tomorrow so hopefully can get another scan in.

So today I had my scan at epau and everything was good, they couldn't find a source of the bleeding. But it has stopped since last night so it's looking good ☺️

Aww that's amazing! I'm so glad it's been a positive outcome for you. How have you been feeling?

Hello I am in a similar situation, I hope all
is still ok ? Xxx

hello, sorry to hear that you went through this, I am currently going through the exact same thing and i can totally empathise with you because its horrible mentally!
I took the mifepristone, changed mind, i have had very diluted spotting, mainly brown. i went for a scan and my baby too was moving and had a heart beat!! I was also very happy. Although I have still been spotting a little.
How is everything going for you now? I can see it has been a couple of months. Hoping everything is going well xxx

Brickbrick · 06/07/2023 16:05

Hi girls, sorry I forgot about this thread!
To update, I'm a couple of days off 24 weeks and everything is going good, as if this never even happened. Baby girl is a wiggler, happy as can be. The bleeding situation ended after around a week, one day it just disappeared and never came back. It was the biggest mistake I've ever made but so grateful everything turned out okay 💕
