D&C and emotionally healing
So I found out at 11wks that's I was beginning to miscarry. The baby stopped developing at 7 weeks and my gestational sac was starting to cave in. The only reason I even found out was because I very slightly started spotting light pink and thought I should call my Dr just to be sure. She told me to come in that day for an ultrasound to see if everything was ok and that's when she told me the news. I got blood work that day and then again 2 days later to check my HCG levels and sure enough, they dropped. So it was confirmed on Monday, I was for sure mis carrying. They scheduled a D&C for Thursday(yesterday). On Tuesday around 3 I started to get such horrible cramps I felt like I was in labor! They went away around midnight and on Wednesday I went in for a pre op appt. I went home and immediately started to cramp again but this time it was much worse. My legs were going numb and my vision was so blurry. My body was trying to naturally miscarry and it was one of the most mierables feelings. I didn't sleep at all before my surgery cause I was in so much pain. After the surgery was over, the pain was gone. I have some slight cramping and soreness but overall I would highly recommend it. Having a miscarriage is already so emotionally painful, I couldn't imagine having to physically go thru it as well. I'm just so terrified to get pregnant again. Please share your experiences, I feel so alone going thru this. My husband has been so amazing, but I feel like I can't stop crying.
