Medical Abortion NI

Hi
Has anyone had a medical abortion in Northern Ireland? I found out on Saturday that I'm pregnant after contraception failed and with 2 small children already we have made the difficult decision to not continue with pregnancy. Devastated but just not at all a financially viable option for us.
I completed the online booking request form with BPAS but just wondering how long it takes to get an appointment here? I'm currently 5 weeks and was so sick from 7 weeks with my previous 2 pregnancies. Would like to get this over and done with asap.

Thanks in advance for any info xx

Thanks so much for coming back to me. Did you phone them? I completed the online form but have heard nothing yet. Think I will just call directly.
Hate that I am in this position 😔

Can I ask you what phone number you used? I rang the one on their website and it said it's MSI? Spoke to a guy who said they don't deal with northern Ireland but sent me a link to BPAS website but the number is the same one that I called?
I'm so confused
