Thought id share my abortion experience to help others!

This is my second abortion first was years ago i am not proud at all infact I was devastated i have 2 children 1 is severely autistic and other is only 9 months old... this was a complete accident he is now getting snipped anyway on to the experience I am still currently in it. Getting the pills was more stress than the abortion itself!!! I really struggled to get them everywhere made me wait weeks and I found out at 3 weeks...I finally am doing it at 6 weeks 1/2 days took me 3 weeks to get somewhere anyway I took first pill yesterday cried a lot about that but felt nothing no symptoms then took the 4 tablets vaginally 24 hours later I was fine till about 2 hours in I started to bleed no cramps just bleeding light bleeding then 3 hours I got very minor contraction feeling comes in waves it really isnt bad at all its like period pain but in waves I went toilet and passed 2 clots this for me is the scariest bit because i have done this before at 7 weeks it was much bigger but this time it was small and easy im now sat with same amount of cramping its minor I took 2 ibuprofen and am just resting it isnt the pain ive seen people go through but I have given birth twice with no pain relief 😅 anyway so far I think this will be it just minor bleeding and cramps and passing some clots I'm sure itll end soon and will update please dont be scared to do this it isnt always as bad as what people say you will be okay!! I dont think I need to take the other two tablets as I am satisfied with the clots that passed.
