A woman shared her experience with abortion pills on LiveJournal:
“I took my four pills at 2:45. I was fine for about an hour, than the heavy cramping started. This was easily more painful than my recovery from gall bladder surgery which I was pretty surprised about honestly. I took my anti nausea meds before taking the four pills, and then I took a Tylenol with codeine. None of which touched me. I ended up vomiting repeatedly in the bathroom for about 10 minutes. I decided to take a hot bath. This helped a lot at first, I got out of the bathtub and laid on the couch.
About thirty minutes into laying on the couch, I was in agonizing pain, pacing up and down my kitchen, randomly screaming and crying(part of that is probably because I apparently suck at handling pain). This went on until around 7:30. At 7:30 I decided a hot shower might help, I was going nuts with pain at this point and had puked again, I just wanted anything to get rid of the pain. Ten minutes into my shower I had a giant clot of some sort…it was flesh colored and the size of a standard coaster almost. After that I bled a lot and I’m still bleeding, I had one blood clot after that so far. I do feel pretty queasy right now though.
Right now I feel crampy but I am okay…I won’t lie, I cried a little after it happened. But I know this was the right choice for me.

We know how safe surgical ones are so go figure how bad the pill must be?
Why women would want this is beyond me.
Isn’t there an easier, more pleasant way to kill your prenatal baby without all the discomfort?
I wonder how we will ever ban this drug?
Abortion is a monstrous, Satanic evil.
As a society we’ll be held accountable on the LAST DAY.
ALL contraception is EVIL
“Isn’t there an easier, more pleasant way to kill your prenatal baby without all the discomfort?”
I can’t help but wonder, how much pain is the baby feeling?
Of course. The abortion pill is a ton of progesterone. Even if you are not pregnant, a ton of progesterone brings on nausea and heavy cramping, then gushing bleeding. Even if you are not pregnant. Anyone who has had unsuccessful IVF cycles knows this. To end the cycle (again, where you didn’t get pregnant), the doctor will of course want you starting very fresh with your next uterine cycle.
Also, this woman was pregnant. So she has to pass through her cervix the expelled fetus etc. it’s pretty horrible depending how far along she was.
With that said, I’m all for giving this drug to a victim of rape. She would take them right away within 72 hrs after the rape and would not be passing a fetus. It would remove her uterine lining making a pregnancy in the Fallopian tube in the next week have no chance of implanting. Most likely there never was a pregnancy so she doesn’t need to feel guilty.
Cry me a river.
It was incredibly painful (physically and emotionally) to lose a baby early in the second trimester. I was stunned at how much it hurt-it was just like contractions. I assume that’s the “cramping” that she finds so painful.
But I didn’t cause my own pain by killing my baby.
I not only have no sympathy left for these women, but the more I hear them seeking sympathy for self inflicted pain the more I feel disgust. Don’t want the physical and emotional trauma? Then don’t murder the baby in your womb.
Why women would want this is beyond me.
Selfishness can’t whore around and be bothered with precautions and give up the party life.
I’ve had two D&C’s after miscarriages. It was pretty easy. That’s what most women get for their abortions.
Don’t want to be pregnant anymore?
Why not bring good out of evil by waiting till the nine months are over and give your darling child to someone who can love her/him? Eighteen years later, you can embrace and receive their thanks.
Yes - why would anyone NOT want a baby, the most adorable and wonderful of God’s creations? To make more money sitting in your sterile cubicle - money for what? A bigger house or car, a vacation somewhere with no kids to enjoy it with? We raised 5 kids and are as poor as church mice, but do not regret one minute. And now we have an amazing granddaughter who RULES the world!
Mifepristone kicks off abortion by blocking progesterone, the natural hormone that maintains the pregnancy. Progesterone can be administered to reverse the effect of the abortion pill, if it is taken soon enough.
This is important for women to know. Keep this hotline number handy:
This is a prolife group which maintains a list of good, ethical OB/BYNS who will assist women with a safe protocol to reverse the abortion pill, if the woman changes her mind and wants to save her baby.
I wanted to make that clear so women aren't afraid to take prescribed progesterone to safeguard their early pregnancies.
Such women, sadly, can be very vulnerable to pressure because early pregnancy entails hormonal changes which sometimes profoundly affect emotional state.
Most women who have had babies know about this: sickening emotional tumult, crying, vomiting, and feeling like crap are, unfortunately, are so often present that they are actually listed a symptoms of pregnancy.
I am not saying this to justify abortion, but to explain why women in this state are vulnerable and need protective and supportive help.
This is one of the reasons why Crisis Pregnancy Centers have been successful in saving thousands of women and babies from the violence of abortion. Sometimes the woman just needs a friend to reassure her that the vomiting and weird feelings will SOON go away, she will feel much better a little later, and pregnancy can be a positive experience.
Some may need a LOT more practical help, but sometimes just getting through the first few weeks with strong reassurance, can save her from making a horrible decision.
I stand corrected. I did not know that. Progesterone definitely saves a pregnancy, so of course there must be something in the first pill to counteract that. I wish I could remove my post above.
Sorry. I was wrong.
God bless you!!!
The negative effects of the Pill can hardly be underestimated. Liberals used to be worried about conservative Christians having most of the kids and raising them in the ways they should do as converted children of God, but those fears were sadly exaggerated.
I advise that if you are going to marry, have as many kids as the Lord will give you if a lifestyle of temperance. They may grow up poorer, but then they can better learn how to share and interact than in the only child, often spoiled households, who are often fearful of life, and foster a snowflake society. My opinion.
Dad was right again.
