Waiting for abortion appointment

Hi, this is just because I need a bit of a hand hold or just somewhere to write out my feelings last night I found out I'm pregnant I have an 8 year old with a complicated medical history and although that situation is improving it's put a massive strain on me and my partners relationship we split for a bit and although we are back together we have both agreed now is not the time for a child, it's just too much too fast and I'm certain this is what I want. I'm feeling a little guilty as although my partner agrees I also know if I chose to continue with the pregnancy he would also be happy with that. I just don't have anyone to talk to as I just feeling it will either be judgment calling me stupid for getting into this situation or my best friend will try and convince me too keep the baby and I know she wouldn't be able to change my mind I just do not want to have too continuously feel like I'm defending myself and my decision.
I contacted BPAS last night and I think I have an appointment with them tomorrow over the phone I'm hoping I'll feel better I'm just not sure what the process will be I know I'm under ten weeks so hopefully I can do it from home? Thanks

All I would say is dont rush the decision. you can feel like getting it done so its over with but sometimes its good to pause and process. hopefully youve had your appointment now and getting the support you need.

If it helps, for my surgical abortion I had a phone consultation on 3 Nov (same day I contacted them), a pre surgery assessment on 6 Nov and my procedure is Monday 11 Nov. This is with BPAS and I am booked into the Richmond branch.

I agree that you want it done fast so it’s over but I also think a little bit of time to be really really sure is good too.
