What to expect after a d&c

It looks like I had a silent miscarriage at 5w5d. I should be 9 weeks now. I'm going in to confirm on Monday and then will be scheduled for a d&c. How soon after a confirmed missed miscarriage did you have your d&c? What was the recovery like? I have two other children and I'm just trying to prepare myself for what I'm about to go through. Thanks everyone.
