I found out i was pregnant with a guy i just started dating. I knew i was in no position to have a child but did NOT want to go through an abortion, yet I knew I had to. I found Early Options on Google and figured I would try it out. I drove over 2 hours to get there and I could not have been happier that I did. The nurse ""A"" was the sweetest girl. She made me feel very safe and answered all 6 billion questions I had. The doctor was by far one of the most caring, sweet, genuine people I have ever met. I went to the Brooklyn office by the way. The first thing they do to start is give an ultra sound which is no pain at all. They give you the option to see the fetus but you do NOT have to look. Then they numb your cervix with a needle, it was a pinch but nothing major. Then they begin the procedure. I will not lie, it was VERY painful cramps but it is over in 2 minutes. I had NO cramps when I left and i was just spotting. No bleeding really at all. You really feel like you can leave the office and continue on your day physically, but everyone's different so you may want to rest if you are emotional. I was emotional during the procedure but the nurse stayed by my side the entire time and literally held my hand. They offer you tea and snacks and they let you stay in the procedure room for as long as you need until you feel you are ready to leave. And while I was in there the nurse stayed right by me. I am not really all about abortions at all, but I know sometimes decisions have to be made that are difficult, and if ANY girl/woman is put in this situation to make such a hard decision, and you find out early enough because you have to be 10 weeks or less, i PROMISE you, you will not regret taking the trip to early options in Brooklyn. Thank you to all the staff for making such a hard, life changing decision so much easier and more comfortable.
