medical abortion tomorrow and i’m terrified

USA

I’m 23(F) and I found out i was pregnant on february 4th after being a couple days late and after a lot of conversations my boyfriend and i both decided we aren’t ready for a baby right now and it wouldn’t be fair to the child. i’m sad because this is my first time being pregnant and this is not what i envisioned for myself but i am struggling with so much i could not be what i wanted for myself child.

I’m currently 7 weeks + 4 days and im terrified of pills in general but of course after deciding to go the medication route since I can do it at home i saw so many horror stories. i am taking the misoprostol vaginally to avoid some of the nausea but im still nervous.

my first day of usual period is always kind of intense but then it gets lighter and im fine. i’ve put this off for a week and dont want to push it anymore. all of this is so overwhelming and the unknown makes it so scary.
