I had a medical abortion, first pill on Wed, 30/08/17, the 4 dissolvable tablets orally on Friday 1/09/17. I was 9 weeks by then. I didn't vomit, didn't have diarrhoea, and didn't feel much pain in the Friday, as I had been given diclofenac. 5 hours after the tablets. I started bleeding, really heavily for about 5 hours, there were many clots, but mostly thin, bright blood. It was terrifying, and I don't usually get heavy period. For about an hour it was so much blood that I soaked 2 regular pads in 10 mins, and had blood running down my legs and was dripping like a fast leaky tap. I had to change my clothing 4 times because I couldn't keep up, then it slowed a bit, but would gush out every 5 minutes and feel like I was wetting myself. My laundry was full of buckets of bloody clothes and blood drops all over the floor and I ended up using rolled up towels because pads were pointless. I soaked through 3 towels too. Needless to say I was pretty distressed, and was keeping everything a secret from my children. I couldn't go to emergency or anything because I have other kids. Just hoped I would be OK.
When it finally settled I was so relieved, but the next evening I had really bad cramps, really painful, and day 3, felt like going into labour, it was like intense constant period pain, but with waves of extreme pain every couple mins, I could not walk really and was just rocking and writhing and moaning. I had HEAPS of blood and clots again. Every time I went to the bath room the toilet would be red, and chunks of jelly fell out. Was not quite as much blood flow as day 1, but it lasted all day. But the pain, the pain was incredible, sometimes shooting pain down into my actual vagina, but usually just severe cramping right through to my back. This whole ordeal had been quite hard, and much worse than I expected, and much worse recovery than my previous experience, which was surgical abortion. ( that was 21 years ago mind you, so I don't remember much!). Very hard as I am unable to rest, have a house hold to run and children that need thing s all the time. Things like grocery shopping and lifting stuff makes the cramping/bleeding start up.
Day 4 today. I really hope the worst is over. I have read lots of other woman's experiences, but haven't come across out of control bleeding like I had as yet.

I was 9 weeks pregnant but when I went to the doc for an u/s, she told me that my baby is dead and stopped delevoping at 6 weeks. Next morning (on wednesday) I started bleeding and my doc suggested I take abortion pills: mifepristone and misoprostol. Yesterday I took 4 pills of misoprostol and I was in such horrible pains. Felt like I'm about to give birth. I was so scared and my doc asked me to come for a check up. She did an intravaginal u/s and said everything was fine and I was only left small clotes which will go out in a week or so. My question is if it's normal for my uterus to hurt right now. I'm not talking about contractions for which I take pain killers, but it's just uterus pain. I can't stretch in my own bed as it hurts, I can't bend as my uterus hurts so bad. Is it normal ? Is it because it's contracting back to it's normal size or is it something wrong ? If there is anyone here experiences this...please..

I had one 5 days ago also and I feel like I'm about to die contraction pains from hell

Northland Family Planning (the abortion pill)
Friday I had my abortion appointment (10/20). It wasn’t the best experience. I went with my bestfriend, when we arrived there were three guys infront protesting but they were far away and on the sidewalk. They didn’t bother us, they just stayed there praying. As we got inside I was called back to fill out paperwork, then was placed in a waiting room. Abt 10mins after that, I was called to get a ultrasound done to see how far along I was. I caught my pregnancy at a very early stage so I was 5weeks. Everyone there was so nice and friendly they even asked if I wanted a copy of my ultrasound and that it would be placed in “my goodie bag” for when I leave. I then was placed back in a waiting room. I was then called to get my blood pressure taken and my blood drawn (which was a simple finger poke). After that I was placed in another waiting room until I met with a counselor. I then was called and met with the counselor we’re she explained the whole procedure to me and I made my payment (she was really nice). After I was placed in another waiting room until I was called back to see the doctor. This is where my horrible experience kicked in. Seating in the waiting room, I could hear the four girls that were called before me getting there surgerical abortion. Like I heard the vacuum/suctioning. I heard the girls crying. I heard girls screaming. Although I was only there for the pill abortion, It made me so sick to my stomach. I wanted to get out of there fast. I was then met by the nicest doctor and nurse where she explained the oral pill to me, the instructions on inserting the four pills at home, my goodie bag and etc. I had 6hours until I could insert them , which would be 4:35 or up to 48hours. After I swallowed the pill I couldn’t get out of there any faster. As soon as I got to the car I broke down hysterically crying. I was more so traumatized with my experience. Like I was ok with my decision and very comfortable but I was traumatized that I had to sit through everyone else decision (the vacuum). It did smthn to me mentally. My appointment was at 8am and I didn’t leave until 11am. I then went and got all my prescriptions filled and put some food on my stomach. I felt fine the entire time. I also then took the antibiotics there instructed.
As 4:30pm started to near I started feeling extremely sick. I felt weak. I was sweating. I then experienced the worst diarrhea. I also had to vomit but I kept drinking water because I feared if I vomit I would have to do this whole thing over. That it wouldn’t work. I was miserable. So I laid down after. Around 4:40 I inserted the pills vaginally and took a Motrin and laid down. Around 6 I started to panic because nthn happened. I was still fine. I freaked out, that maybe it didn’t work. Around 9pm I started bleeding and light cramps, I then passed a huge blood clot. After that I took my prescribed pain killers (Norco) and kept taking it as told every four hours. I kept my feet elevated and a heating pad on my stomach. I stayed on the floor it was just more comfortable and with a heater by me because I experienced chills. I stayed on top of my pian killers so it wasn’t to bad throughout the last couple days and I stayed with my feet elevated and a heating pad. I passed a few more blood clots.
Now it’s Monday, day four. And I feel like I’m dying. I’m experiencing the worst craps of my life. Contraction cramps. First they go away for 20mins then they come back for five mins with so much intense pain. This lasted probably for 8hours. I rather die then ever experience that again. None of the pain meds worked. Not even Norco. The heating pad didn’t work. Elevating my feet didn’t work. I literally got so miserable that I almost drove myself to ER. But my friends that had abortions before told me this was normal. Idk how smthn so painful could be normal. So I listened and didn’t go. I broke down in tears crying for 8hours on the floor, balled up. Because I didn’t know what else to do.
This is my first child and abortion idk anything abt this but I know I can’t take anymore of this. I don’t know how long this last but I’m praying it’s over soon. I also was told that the contractions cramps are the signs that your uterus is shrinking back to its normal size, of not being pregnant. I took of a week of work just to be on the safe side because they say to stay of your feet for five days and don’t lift anything over 25pounds. I hope my story helps.

I had a surgical abortion on 10/24/17 in hospital. I had two apts with the hospital about it before the procedure. A US and a counseling apt with blood work. I was admitted into the hospital at 9:30 the day of the termination. I was 7 weeks and 4 days, they gave me some naproxen for cramps and mistroprol for 10:30. I went home and the bleeding started by eleven. I went back to the hospital for 1pm. Got into bed, they placed an IV then I waited until 3pm. Walked into the procedure room, got up on the table, the nurses gave me a mix of Vicodin/Fentanyl for pain and relaxation. I was awake the whole time, I didn't really feel anything during the procedure other then some pressure and scraping, didn't hurt (I've also had both C-section and an Umbilical hernia repaired in the past 19 months so I'm used to the numb feelings). The nurses were amazing talking about how much they loved my eyebrows

I’m here because of the horrendous cramps the surgical procedure gave me. It’s no better. I can’t stop crying because the pain is so bad. I made a call to my doctor and now it’s a waiting game until 4:00

Im having similiar pain to as what you've described however I'm not having any blood clots and I'm not bloating just some severe belly cramps and I'm very uncomfortable no matter what I do (pain killers and use of heated pads ) is not helping me at all

Here I am over a year later reading your story. The last line touched me bc it describes perfectly how I feel. I have a wall up. My boyfriend doesn’t want to talk about it much meanwhile my heart is aching everyday and my mind is constantly wondering. It is so very important to express your feelings. but at the same time nobody around be understands bc they didn’t go through what I went through.

Omggg it's 2018 and I'm going through this now. I've been cramping for almost two weeks. My medical abortion was delayed as well because I threw up 45 mins after the last four pills. Smh. It's so bad I cried as well. It's annoying and very frustrating and my stomach has never been this bloated before. This post helped me thank you. I thought I was the ONLY ONE who went through this craziness. I'm just ready for my life to go back to normal lbs.
