MA at 6 weeks and I feel great
I got a medical abortion at 5 w 6 d and I feel amazing.
I took the first pill that stops the pregnancy from developing and immediately could tell the difference. No more chronic fatigue. I had to drink energy drinks on top of my adhd meds to try to stay awake at work. No more hyper dog-like smell. I can cook chicken again without being disgusted. Bleach and menthol smells doesn’t anger me anymore. No longer bloated mess. My stomach is already flat again. Even my gait is back to normal. I felt like i was already a wobbling penguin despite it being so early. Now I can start my marathon training again. I also ate way too much and too often while pregnant. I’m happy to have my body back again.
I took the second portion that makes you cramp and bleed yesterday. I was fine for the first two hours. I was able to relax and sleep for a bit. Decided to sit on the toilet as the diarrhea was kicking in, then the cramps came. Deep breathing techniques and internal mantras to myself helped me as they passed. It settled down and I figured it was time for a little snack. I was able to pick up ice cream and drink raspberry leaf tea to help speed up the process. After I had both, I passed the baby. A single plop that slipped out. I had another wave of toe curling cramps but I knew the hard part was over. By this time, over 7 hours had passed. I danced myself to sleep and woke up today with a period amount of blood.
Now it is Mother’s Day and I’m going to treat myself to breakfast and retail therapy.
I have absolutely no regrets. I feel so much better.
Good luck to everyone who is going through this process, thinking about it, or will have to in the future. I hope everything goes well for you. Remember, it is your decision, most importantly.
