- Still pregnant after abortion mumsnet I have never been as low as I was then in my life (I was also 39). Oct 10, 2022 路 Are you meaning to get pregnant again? I totally understand the regret. All very straight forward, small amount of bleeding on the day followed by a honey/caramel coloured discharge everyday since. It came as a complete shock and we both agreed that we didn’t believe we were ready. All the time still feeling the nausea, sore boobs and tiredness it was time to take the pregnant test provided by BPAS, it came back Positive! I knew it I had a feeling I was still pregnant but still knew it could be my hormones causing the result so I waited another week. I was still feeling very unwell (severe pregnancy sickness and high blood pressure: my reasons for not being able to continue with the pregnancy to begin with) after the pills, went back to the clinic who confirmed I was still pregnant. I was 7 weeks pregnant at the time. I was 37 and my children at the time were 12 and 9. I am 41 , so can imagine the surprise when I found out I was pregnant. So now I have a whole week of wondering what the hell has gone on.

Aug 18, 2022 路 Hi @RoomOnTheBrooms I had a surgical termination a couple of weeks ago so waiting my first period but I imagine hormones are all over the place for quite a while after, even if your cycle has gone back to normal it's still a big thing to recover from emotionally even if you were 1,000% sure it was the right choice. I think it was around 3 weeks after due to another pregnancy scare (Yes, 18, in an abusive relationship and extremely stupid before anyone judges 馃檲). I went through with the termination, and the day after I took the tablets, he ghosted me for a week. How did you feel straight after your abortion and did it take long to come to terms with it afterwards.
