Big hugs. I've been there. My scan at 9.5 weeks showed the baby had died. I ended up having a D&C at 10 weeks and it turned out it was a partial molar pregnancy so it was definately the right thing to do. I understand what you are going through and it is not easy. I found I had a sense of relief after my D&C as my body could finally process what had happened and start to heal. I hope you too will feel physically better after the D&C although obviously the emotional side is a process.
It is a huge thing to go through in every respect and the hormonal changes in themselves are unsettling and tiring.
sorry to hear your loss, I had a missed mc last year found out at 12w baby died 7w1d i had no signs of mc other that a bit of brown mucus. I had a D and C and found it helped move on once the baby had been removed and allowed the body hormones to return to normal and let the greving process occur
wishing you all the best and always here if you need to PM
As I was leaving the hospital today the nurse gave me some numbers if I need to call anyone. I thanked her and said I keep it in mind, but I find the chats on Ohbaby really helpful. She said she has had ladies say the same thing about TM and has started suggesting it to patients. She said she mush just add ohbaby to the list.
I am glad I went through with the D&C, though it was a bit hollywood. As the anaesthetist (sp?) was giving me the anaesethic tears silently rolled down my cheeks. LOL, seriously Tinsletown couldnt have written it better.
At the moment I am just relieved. One day at time.
They dont do it in North Shore Hospital either, In fact there were 4 of us in day surgery all there for the same reason. The nurses fussed like crazy over us and were fantastic.
I am shocked by how little im bleeding, for some reason I thought I would be gushing.
Cramping is fine, nothing a couple of panadol every six hours is keeping at bay... just have to remember to pee!
Oh and I have picked up a cold or something. I woke from the GA yesterday at 9am... if have averaged a minimum of 10 sneezes an hour since. I even woke myself up sneezing last night. Soooo annoying.
I barely bled at all for the first 4 days and then had a massive gush and then spotted for 7 days after that. That may not happen to you but don't get a fright if it does :)
Thanks for the heads up, Its probably cos I am not moving around to much. I have noticed if I move around to much cramps get worse... really have to remember to pee. I think the panadol is numbing my bladder a bit.
Starting to feel a bit low again... must be time for lunch
