i got a positive HPT 2 days ago. im not keeping it, its totally not even possible to have this baby. this will be my 5th baby. i am 23 years old and my youngest is 8 months. my house is too small, my car is too small and i just cant support this child as much as it pains me to terminate it.
i cant be that far along. my last known LMP was AROUND 24th august. 2 weeks after that i had a tiny bleed. 2 weeks after that i did a HPT- negative. 4 days after that i felt dizzy and extremely fatigued ever since. 2 weeks after that, which takes me to the 13th sep, i got a VERY clear positive.
I went to the doc yesterday and all he did was tell me to find a gyno??? he wrote me a letter, NOT a referral. i have to call BOTH hospitals, get a list of gynos and hope they do terminations. WHAT??? :freakingout: he was no help whatsoever. what do i do??? to get into a gyno i need a referral and it takes WEEKS to get in, by the time i get in it'll be too late to terminate. i want to get it done ASAP. I live in a smallish town aswell so there are NO clinics here, i think they are done at the main hospital.
can someone help? i am so confused and stressed out, i am literally shaking right now, i dont know what to do. :confused:

Big hugs.
I was going to say GP would be the first step? But seems I am wrong?? What state are you in so that someone who knows more might be able to point you in the right direction.

If you contact Marie Stopes International (google them and then give them a call) they can give you the details of somewhere close to you. Maybe speak to them, and then go back to your doctor and TELL him that this is what you are doing, and ask for a referral and a blood test. The blood test will give you a better idea of how far along you are, as the clinic will need that info...
Great big hugs - i hope you are ok and get the support you need. Xoxoxxo

I think you needs the bloods just so you can give then a rough idea of how far you are, as it will change what kind of procedure they do... I hope it all goes smoothly for you - and please don't be scared to ask for counseling post- op... Xoxoxo

im feeling 'ok' physically. im shaking but i think thats just a side effect (hot and cold flushes) im having mild cramping but nothing excruciating like i have read about, YET. i passed a huge clot too. it seriously feels so surreal and like an out-of-body experience.
