UK and Ireland 48 hours since misoprostol not passed pregnancy - UK

• Upvotes

48 hrs since I took misoprostol vaginally, I then took 2 more misoprostol 4hrs after first batch because no progress. I started bleeding then it became v light. Now its become super light, no cramps either. Ive had previous early miscarriage & gave birth, each time, including periods, I bleed a lot and experience intense cramping, clots usually in periods & previous miscarriage and pain. This has not been the case this time round.

I currently feel really full in my lower abdomen/pelvic area & exhausted. Ive tried walking aroundto try mobilise blood flow & sitting on the toilet but nothing. I dont think I’ve passed the pregnancy at all, not enough blood nowhere near. Been advised by abortion provider to wait 7 days but something feels wrong and I just want this over with. Any similar experiences or thoughts? I start my new job on Monday and really dont know what to do and wnated to avoid taking time off as soon as I start. Ive pushed start date by 2 weeks already. Feeling overwhelmed.

USA how long did you wait to have sex again after SA/MA abortion?

2 Upvotes

hi! I had a surgical abortion on 10/02 and i was almost 7 weeks. I was told to wait at least 2 weeks. Im just curious about how long others waited and their experience after having an abortion. I will admit I am a little worried/scared about the first time.

I’ve just done my second dose of miso under my tongue & they dissolved within maybe 5 minutes. I googled and it says it may not be as effective.

USA What do I do if I only have misoprostal?

• Upvotes

Hi. Located in Ohio. I will be 8 weeks pregnant on Saturday. I have horrible hyperemesis, with a pump and nothing is working. I am in the darkest place mentally I’ve ever been in.

My very best friend just got an abortion a few weeks ago, and has 4 of the miso pills….just none of the first ones. Can I take those? Will it abort my baby?

I know I sound insane but I am established with an OB and I don’t know how to tell them this. He is pretty conservative, so I think I would have to seek abortion care elsewhere anyway.

I feel horrible and guilty but the HG makes it to where I cannot function.

Canada Can anyone share their experiences with later MA 8-10 weeks?

• Upvotes

I am going through a Medical (Pill) abortion tonight (2nd pills) and curious what to expect. I have had a medical abortion a few years ago at like 5-6 weeks and it was absolutely terrible in terms of pain, and a visible sac/ tissue expelled, shivers, sweats, racing heart, extreme cramps, nausea, diarrhea all at once... so measuring 8 weeks 5 days (but period places me more 9 weeks 3 days), I am even more afraid of serious effects after it begins.

I am thinking of taking 500mg Naproxen, 1000mg Tylenol and 1mg Hydromorphone in advance with Gravol/ pepto-bismol as precaution but worried it may be overkill. I only took a Naproxen last time and zero relief.

How long did it take you to expel the main tissue? Last time it was pretty traumatic cause I could see the sac/ embryo clearly and there was like a gush of liquid....

USA Good experience with the second abortion pill.

1 Upvotes

hi posting this because I just wanted to share my experience. everyone was making it seem like the pain will be 10/10! honestly I took medication to relief the pain 30 minutes before and every 6 hours after. I felt the cramps but it felt like regular cramps to me. I have such a low tolerance with pain so I was terrified.

I used a heating pad and I was able to sleep over night. I did get up to change my pad. next day I’m able to get up but here and there I feel the cramps. I don’t have to take pills anymore.

honestly the pain for me is a 3/4 out of 10.

USA I Think I’m Going to Have an Abortion

1 Upvotes

This past weekend I found out I’m 3 weeks 5 days pregnant. We were not trying at all and I don’t think I’m ready for a second baby right now. My first baby is only 14 months old. We have a vacation planned at the end of February, I don’t want to give up another entire summer for a newborn. It feels selfish, but I think it’s the right thing to do. I’m sacred of making a decision and regretting it though. If it was literally 2 or 3 months later I’d be overjoyed and ready for a second baby.
If I go through with an abortion, will I be able to conceive in February/March?

I’m 32 I have birthed 5 children 4 are mine one was a surrogacy pregnancy. I’m in the worst financial position I’ve ever been in and I just found out I’m pregnant from one time mess up. I am having to have an abortion but I’m scared it’s going to haunt me forever and I’m scared I’m going to never be able to get pregnant again. My boyfriend doesn’t think it’s a big deal but all of it is eating me alive. I haven’t stopped thinking about it. I ordered the pills online for the abortion. Has anyone done that? I can’t afford to go to planned parenthood. That’s why I ordered them online they were only 25$. Please help 😭😭😭

USA I don’t know if I want an abortion.

1 Upvotes

I’m 20 and I’m not sure if I want an abortion. My boyfriend 21 does. I’ve had one before and it felt like the right decision and I still feel like it was. But it was still hard on my psyche. And with this one an abortion doesn’t fully feel right. And I want to keep it. But another part kf me knows we can’t afford a baby right now and we haven’t been together long. And it would also be a lot. And we’re both so young and haven’t lived life much. But he’s also the best man I’ve ever been with and I’m so in love with him and we’ve talked about how we want to be each others forevers and get married. But I’m worried if I go through with the pregnancy it will make him resent me, or it will make him leave me. And if I get an abortion I’m worried I will regret it.

Add/ edit- I do truly want to be a mom and It was hard on me for my last abortion. I just don’t know what to do. And most importantly I want to be able to give a child a secure life. We’ve talked about having kids in the future but I think he thinks it’s too soon now.

UK and Ireland Do you think my abortion was successful? Lack of pain?

1 Upvotes

I took mifeprostone Monday at 9.15am. I then took misoprostol Tuesday at 9.30. I would have been just under 6 weeks. By 13:30, I had diarrhoea and null pain but no bleeding so took the third dose then. I then had bleeding, but mostly while I was on the toilet. I was sitting/resting all day, so I suppose the blood pooled and only came out when I was on the toilet. I didn’t experience a lot of pain and never felt contraction like cramps, mostly just dull pain that was most discomfort than anything. Because I lost most blood in the toilet, I’m unsure whether I passed tissue. It’s Thursday now and I am bleeding into pads and losing blood in toilet, not a concerning amount. I’m still feeling some light cramping. Should I be concerned I didn’t have massive pain or cramping?

Canada SA abortion under moderate sedation + local anaesthetic @ 4 weeks (Newfoundland, Canada)

2 Upvotes

Hi! First of all I would like to thank those who left a kind comment on my previous post. They were extremely helpful. Now I wanted to share my experience for others in need.

I got my abortion done by suction (moderate sedation + local anesthesia) at a small clinic in Newfoundland, Canada (Athene Health Centre aka Clinic 215). I'm glad I went with SA, I was initially considering MA but got terrified after reading all the horror stories here.

I was at the clinic for about 5 hours total, where they provided me paperwork, counseling, ultrasound, medication and IV, and then finally the suction procedure. My experience was very positive.

I would say the scariest part for me was IV insertion, since I've never had it in me before and I HATE needles. But the nurses were kind and quick! I just felt a pinch.

Here is how the procedure went: after getting the IV tube in, they gave me ibuprofen, antibiotics, and some kind of anxiety pill to take. Then two more pills to keep between my gum and cheek for 30 minutes. After about 1.5 hours it was time. They made me change my bottoms to a wrap skirt and wait a little in a comfy reclining chair with a heating pad and a blanket. When I moved to the operation room I laid down on a gynecology bed, had versed and fentanyl injected through IV, then started to feel loopy after a few seconds. I was still awake and felt what was going on - the needles for local anesthetic, and some tools doing whatever inside. Just very sleepy, and not painful. They had a screen on the ceiling showing beautiful art and photos, but I think I had my eyes shut for the most of it lol. After about 5 minutes it started to feel really uncomfortable (closer to itchy than painful), but then boom everything was done!!! They put me in a wheelchair, took me to the recovery room, and gave me a heating pad +blanket + cookies and apple juice while I rested for 30 minutes. I felt completely normal after. I don't remember when I put my pants back on though lol.

I had a normal period-like back pain afterwards until this morning with some bleeding (procedure was yesterday), but otherwise I'm doing fine. I am back to my normal schedule today! Everyone at the clinic was so kind and non-judgemental. I could not have asked for a better environment.

From my experience I highly recommend the suction procedure method. I've never had MA so I don't know what it would be like, but I will just say that I'm glad I went with SA.

Im stressing but i know its for the best. Send me positive vibes please. 🙏

Asia I need advices, please help me.

1 Upvotes

Problem / Goal:
I want to ask if how are the chances of me getting pregnant? Bcs I don’t want to.

Context: F, 22 . Had sex last night and the condom slipped off when my bf was about to pull out (little cum inside the condom). The ring was outside and there’s no leakage no dripping. But to make sure, i took the trust pill (yuzpe method). My period should be on 29th. But I am sure that theres no cum that entered me (only inside the condom). So please tell me if there’s anything I could do more to prevent this.

Previous Attempts: This is my first time with this situation so I really don’t know what other things I should do. Please respect my post.

Canada can’t decide and not the best circumstances

1 Upvotes

I feel really stupid, I have positive tests. I was just planning on leaving my partner, who always showed signs of being abusive but now has really become so. this is a repeated circumstance, I have had an abusive partner and pregnancy before with failed prevention methods (not just an IUD). I don’t want to believe he’s abusive but he is :( in multiple ways. I always find some excuse.

we are not financially great either, part of that is him being financially unfair, but his parents I’m sure would be supportive of me. and kind of know his behaviour. I’m so sad. He thinks that my emotionality is abusive but it’s in response to his actions although yes I’m sensitive and sometimes give up on myself too easily.

I don’t know what to do. Even before with the circumstances having an abortion was traumatic. Last time I was more panicked. This time I’m not sure. My cousin said if I keep it they have kids and will help me. I don’t want to wait too long. I’m at 7 weeks exactly and I wish I had found out sooner but I had to stay out of my apartment while he was threatening and hurting me.

I’m so sad. I made plans to leave. I have a new place. I just want to be in love. 😞 I’m having really delusional thoughts about a different man coming to my rescue and wanting to raise it with me. 🙄

Hey all,

Has anyone had experience ordering online at planccpills,org? Some people have suggested them to me, but I'll be honest the site seems a little bit sketchy. Has anyone had a good experience with them? For context, I'm in Florida and I'm getting an ultrasound today but I'm pretty sure I'm past 6 weeks. Will I get in trouble if I take them past that point if I order them before the six week mark? Do I need to give them a confirmation of pregnancy?

So we have successfully aborted the baby. However, we're quite confused on what to do with the remainings. A person recommended burying/throw it in a river, but we don't have any land to bury it and throwing it in the river seems kinda risky. It's kinda big so flushing it down the toilet is risky too. Any recommendations?

Since then i’ve been bleeding, i’ve been using the Always overnight period underwear. Going through one of them a day.

I took mife at 4 weeks ish and the next day I took miso roughly 4.3 weeks. I had light bleeding after my first dose and bled into the toilet, past a clot. And wiped. Bleeding was light and settled down that night. Barely anything in the pad.

2 days later I bled some more and then started passing brown pieces that were speckled in brown discharge or when I peed. Then it all stopped

My symptoms have gone away. And mostly my nipple soreness is gone. I would technically be a week after first dose of miso today and 5.3 days if it were ongoing.

I’m working myself up. Going to get hcg test today. My first. I’ve been using easy at home tests and I just feel like they should be fading by now, especially since I wasn’t far a long at all.

Any advice If I should be getting a dark positive still or should it be fading by now?!

*edited - I had cervical egg white discharge this morning dripping from me when I peed
