Abortion

So to cut a long story short I had a medical abortion at around 9 weeks and continued to get positive pregnancy tests so after 4 weeks I rang my local clinic to get booked in to see if I was still pregnant/tissue left behind etc.
They scanned me and straight away they told me the pregnancy was still on going and I was 14 weeks and they could book me in for a surgical abortion but not until I'm 19 weeks as there's just a big back log! As you can imagine this is really distressing for me I can't believe I have to wait another 4 weeks before they can do anything for me 😩
I have a big family holiday next week and not sure how I'm going to hide this from them as my stomach is already feeling and looking quite bloated

Hi, so sorry this is happening, how distressing. What was your bleeding like with the medical abortion?

I was bleeding and had really bad cramps so I thought the pregnancy had past, only that I done a test at 2 and a half weeks and another one 4 weeks after the abortion and it still said positive I thought I'm best going for a scan and that shown the pregnancy was still on going
