Pregnancy
Posted: 08-07-05 17:26pm

I have recent had an abortation just over a month ago, which was the biggest mistake I have ever made. I already have two daughters and I just felt that I could handle another one in this point in my life..

Right afterwards I totally regretted it and wanted my baby back.

Then I found out that I am now pregnant again, and I am sooo happy about that.

I was just wondering if ne of u have ever experienced that and is it safe to be pregnant again so soon. Please let me know...

thanks hun. The only thing now is is that I am scared to go back to my family docs and that is where I have to go to get my referral for my other doc. She has been my family doc since I was 2 and she is friends with all of my family.

I have no idea how to go and tell her that I had an abortation and that I am pregnant again. She won't be happy with me at all.. And its not something that I can really get around since it will all be on her records.

Ne advice on how I can tell my doc that?

Number one she is a doctor and she has no business to judge in anyway otherwise she is in the wrong business. And she would have to keep this quiet ( patient confidentiality) cause if she did not then you could sue!!
Besides if your going to her for a referal then why should she have to know? She's giving you a referal, not being your doctor thruogh out your pregnancy. But if you think she's gonna be a problem then go to an obgyn on your own.
But when you do go to the obgyn, you'll need to make sure you tell them you had one. I'm sure you know that.

Good luck!

yeah I will forsure tell my obgyn. But my family doc know I was pregnant all ready and when I go and see her again now with this pregnancy, she is going to wonder what happened. I was just thinking about telling her that I miscarried, but last time I was in to see her, I signed a paper giving her permission to be send my other medical records if I was in to see another doc. My abortation was done in a hospital, so now I am worried that that medical record got sent there too.. Do u know if it would have or was that completely confidential even though I did sign those papers. Please let me know what u think. Thanks.. I really do need to get to the doc next week since I am already just over 6 weeks pregnant, I am just not really sure what to tell her, so I have been trying to put it off. Please help...

Well, if you signed the paper for your doc to send records to other docs, then it shouldn't be an issue. If you are worried about what to tell your doc about this pregnancy, just try to get by with the basics...That you're pregnant and need a referral. But it's not a good idea to lie to your docs...At least if you just leave the abortion out of it, you can go back later if for some reason your doc needs to know about it. Good luck!!!

i don't really know what it was called. The hospital wanted to put something called a tent in me, but they couldn't because I have too narrow of a birth canal, so they ended up giving me to pills to insert in me and then 4 hours later I had to go in for a d'n'c.

the Reason I Ask...
Posted: 08-18-05 13:53pm

Is cuz if it was methotrexate--injection(could be pills too) they ask that you wait 1 full cycle at least and until hcg levels go back down to <5. But if you are im sure all will be fine--you are getting a second chance. Thank god for that.
