Don’t know if I can wait

I just found out I’m pregnant and it’s been difficult. I was on the fence about what to do and decided on a termination. However the wait for a consultation locally is another four weeks so I would be at least eight weeks by then. I don’t think I can handle a medical termination at 8 weeks so wanted surgical but am worried it would be an even longer wait for that after the consultation.

I don’t know what to do. I feel that I may end up keeping this pregnancy simply because of waiting times as I don’t think I could go through with it too far along.

Has anyone been in this position? What did you do?

There are private gynae clinics offer telephone and online appointments next day for pill in the post services. Never used them myself but have a google. Cost a couple of hundred pounds (much less than raising a child).

However waiting till 8 weeks is maybe not so bad if you feel unsure?

Hi @Choices44

How did you get on and what did you decide in the end? X
