I am sorry you have to go through any of this. I am sending out all the good vibes I can that everything goes smooth tomorrow. Many women on this site have had D&C (including me) and we have all done fine. I am sure you will to. We are here for you. Please keep us updated. (((HUGS)))

I understand your fears, my first loss I had a d&c. The healing mentally and emotional took some time - longer than the physical part. Take care of yourself - get a haircut, paint your nails, etc. Come here for support. Thinking of you.

I hope everything went ok with the D&C, wrennie. I had a D&C with my first loss too and it was probably the easiest part of the process. Take it easy on your body (well, as much as you can with a little one at home) and let us know if you need us.
Hugs, Marisa

I also had a D&C April 1. This was my second in a row for a BO. The first was December 1. The procedure itself went smoothly but I've been miserable ever since. I've known about the BO for almost two weeks so I thought I'd be fine but for some reason having the D&C just made everything fresh in my mind again. Or else it is the hormones dropping! Everywhere I look I see babies and pregnant ladies.

B- Feeling emotional after the D&C is normal and I think you are right, that it is a combination of hormones and the situation that just makes your heart hurt. I know you know this already but as best as you can, try to be patient and gentle with yourself. I remember after both my losses I felt the same thing about seeing babies and pregnant ladies everywhere (and after my first loss, I had 9 friends get pregnant in the 7 months before I got pregnant again so I know it wasn't only that I was more conscious of them but that was certainly a part of it).
Take care of yourselves and remember that it is ok to feel whatever your heart needs to feel right now.

I can understand what you are going through. I too was very scared to be put to sleep during my D and C. The doc said she would give me a mild sedative so I don't feel the pain but I think she gave me a little more and I fell asleep and when I woke up after 20 mins I was actually glad I slept since I didn't feel any physical pain. Please don't worry. You will get through this.
