My story

Hailey

So today, was my D&C. I had a rough 3 weeks with 1st started as I was 8 weeks and the baby was measuring 6 weeks 1 day. A week later I went back and the baby was measuring 6 weeks 2 days with no heart beat but could see a flicker, yesterday I went back to no baby at all and my sack was getting smaller with fluid on the ultrasound and my doctor confirmed it as a missed miscarriage. Well today at 11 this morning I went in for my D&C. At 1, they took me to the back, put me to sleep and I go to recovery. What was supposed 1 hour there, I was alert and going back in my room within 30 minutes to be with my husband. The nurse told me would have to pee before I can get discharged which I did after an hour. I had mild cramping but went away in that hour. After waiting 3 long hours for my Dr. he finally released me and told me everything went great and that we can try again in 2 weeks! In these 3 weeks, I had accepted the possibility of this but last night, everything just hit me like a train and cried myself to sleep. This morning I was a nervous wreck of not knowing anything about a D&C and what it is like. But my personal opinion I’m glad I had done this because I couldn’t imagine me seeing my baby like that.

Prayers for a rainbow baby in the near future💕
