Hiya so was 6 weeks pregnant yesterday. Totally unplanned pregnancy and for various reasons decided a medical abortion would be right for me. Got the tablets through bpas and took the first one about 5pm last night. Now most of the stories/experiences Iv read people had no symptoms off the first tablet however I have woken up in a pool of cold sweat, also felt quite shaky during the night and exhausted. I’m thinking it’s probably to do with the pregnancy hormones being blocked but just wondering has anyone else felt the same? I don’t feel unwell. I’m going to get up and eat and see if that helps and I will ring bpas but just wanted to know if anyone else had same. I’m taking the rest of the meds tea time tonight. Dreading it 🙈

I am just about to take my second step now and I’m so so worried. I hope you don’t mind me asking about your experience as I am so so worried!

@26yearsyoung sorry I didn’t see this or I would’ve replied straight away. My experience was actually ok, I didn’t actually think it had worked at first as it took a while for any cramping to start. I hope yours went ok sending you loads of love and support xxxx
