Hi everyone, just wanted to share my story. As I’m typing this I am currently in the process of my medical abortion, I found out I was pregnant 5 weeks ago, 3 weeks ago I kicked my partner out as I found out he was having an affair. We have 4 daughters our youngest being 9 months. I knew I couldn’t have another baby on my own.

I took the first abortion pill 6pm 30 hours ago (Monday evening)
fast forward to last bight (24 hours after taking first tablet) I started feeling hot went to the toilet and I was starting to bleed. Lost a small clot, went to bed at 8pm woke up at 12am with cramping so went to the toilet I was passing clots, my plan was to take the second tablets Wednesday morning when my mum takes my daughters for the day ( the plan failed ) since I was already bleeding and passing clots and couldn’t sleep I went and took the second lot of tablets 40 minutes ago dissolved them in my cheek. Since then the cramps have intensified, I’ve passed quite a large clot and am currently on the toilet, writing this is keeping me sane as no one is awake to talk to, up to now it hasn’t been no where near as bad as I expected. And hopefully I can get some rest in the next few hours

Good luck to you. Sounds like you've made a sensible choice and are putting your existing children first.

Your emotions might go crazy in the next few weeks but don't forget your hormones are all over the place and you'll be ok

How are you today?
