I'm about 7 weeks gone although I'm not really sure... I know I'm going through with the abortion but I'm worried about the pain. I've heard some horror stories and some rather peaceful ones. just wondering what your experience was like etc.

Im not going to lie it did hurt alot, but I was awake and under some drug that makes you just feel a bit giddy but i was awake for the procedure and yes it did hurt a , but I think it was the mental and physical pain that combined that made it so bad - Its probebly different for everyone.

Any pain during the procedure will not be as bad as the 7 weeks you have just spent xxx
I hope you are ok x

I have always found it to be a peaceful time. Bad period pains sums it up really.

You may feel emotionally hollow inside but that happens to all of us. Take a book or Mag incase they don't have a telly or you feel like sitting in the corner on your own for a while.

Comfortable clothing, something that you can snuggle in to is also highly reccomended.

I wich you welll hun .. XX

Hey hun

I had a surgical abortion and all was very peaceful.

I was taken in to surgery and talked to as they applied the anesthetic. When I woke up I was on a ward and left to rest til I was ready, then wheeled to a lounge to watch TV and given refreshments until I was ready to get up and go.

I did have bad blod clots and cramps a few days later that lasted a week or so, but just got some rest and was ok.

hey, i ha my surgical abortion at 10 weeks and woke up after the anisthetic feeling fine, went out the weekend after and tried to get on with things. WRONG thing to do. i was in agony, experiencing clotting and bad cramps, because i never rested. so please rest for at least a week after zas ul feel worse if u try to keep urself busy. but then again every1s different x

I had an abortion with the pill method a few days ago, it was painful but i took what i thought were painkillers then realised it was an antibiotic. If you take painkillers before you have it done it will help. I just slept most of the day after taking the second pills. I didnt find it much worse than a bad period. I was fine, well i will put it this way, i had the pills at 10am and at 7pm i went to a party and was fine! Hope all goes well for you x x x x
