Okay at 2 months you would have a surgical abortion. After an abortion they would give you a few pills to take at home. They may give you birth control pills(helps with bleeding after an abortion and normalizs hormones), antibiotics(prevent infections) and methergine.(helps stop bleeding by making your uterus contract back down to normal size) noone has to know you had an abortion unless you get special pain medicine during your abortion, because you cannot drive after being put to sleep. Many clinics like for you to have a ride home anyway because it is good to rest.

*** how an abortion is done.
1) they will put you to sleep if you are able to have the medications.
2) they insert a speculum just like a regular female exam
3) they also insert a tenaculum which hold your cervix and uterus still
4)they clean your vagina and outer labia with antiseptic to prevent infection. (much like other types of surgery.)
5) they will dilate your cervix using small metal or plastic rods. They will dilate it to about the size of a bal point pen.(a bit smaller)
6)they insert a suction cannula and remove the pregnancy.

This is pretty much a basic description of what happens.

I wouldn't wait much longer. The sooner it is done, the safer it is and the less hurdles you have to jump (depending on your location).
Best of luck and keep us posted.
Peace,

wonderful. Sounds so nice. :roll:
to someone who is dealing with the stress of an unintended pregnancy, it is wonderful. In fact, the description just doesn't do it justice at all.

yea. You keep telling yourself that queen.
Your description is "vague" i'm sure. No words describe the violence and inhumane disgust the procedure entails.

please, "queen" is not necessary. A simply "your highness" will suffice.

it wasn't my description at all but was cari's and she managed to spotlight in easily understood terms the way the procedure is performed. Any other, more in depth questions regarding the procedure can and should be answered by the actual provider.

you are the one who finds the procedure "violent" and "inhumane". I, for one, find the prospect of illegal abortions much more violent and inhumane. But then, I actually consider .Women to be human beings in the first place and worth more than the possible contents of their uterus'. More to that same point, I believe .Women are moral agents capable of making the best decision possible for themselves, their families, and their communities in an otherwise stressful time. I trust .Women.
