**possible trigger** Miscarriage/abortion story 18years old
When I was 18 years old I found out I was pregnant with my boyfriend, I was too young had no job and we weren’t in a good place in our lives, after much thought we decided to have an abortion done, I had Kaiser and I was told to get the abortion with Planned Parenthood I needed to have a note from my Kaiser Dr first. So I saw Kaiser and told them everything , they took blood work and recommended me to PP for the abortion. Weeks later at my appointment with PP I was given an ultrasound where the Dr said the baby didn’t have a heart beat, and gave me the abortion pill, weeks later I went back for my check up and they told me the pill didn’t work so I had to get an emergency surgery abortion to have the baby removed immediately.
I’m not 25 and have Kaiser again as of recently, I pulled up the app and saw my past medical records from this horrible time in my life, as I was looking through them, I noticed my HGC level at that time I was thinking I was pregnant was a 1 and it said I should of been at-least a 4 or higher given how far along I was supposed to be.
So the whole time Kaiser knew I was having a miscarriage or that the baby had already passed but still let me proceed with an “abortion”??
I beat myself up for many years, began abusing drugs and alcohol because I had hated myself for killing my baby when in fact the whole time this could of been resolved if my Dr told me I was having a miscarriage...
Weird feelings for-sure but mostly confused and upset with my Dr. from when I was 18
