I am sorry to hear of your loss. I would let your doctor know what is happening. I did have lots of bleeding/cramping afterwards and I was put on medication for heavy bleeding ( cant remember the name of it) for about 5 days after. Do you have discharge instructions from the hospital? They are not allowed to let you leave without having you or your husband sign that you were given instructions.
I signed discharge papers when I was sent home but I don't remember being told anything other then take tylonal and ibuprofen. But I don't remember being Told anything else.
They should of given you written instructions. I'm sorry to hear you didn't get them. I would certainly give them a call and run your symptoms by them to make sure you aren't having anything that would be considered concerning or urgent. Bleeding and cramping are things I rember experiencing after my D&C for our miscarriage. I would be concerned if it is excessive bleeding.
I am so sorry for ur loss....I too miscarried at 9 weeks. I had a d&c on 11/01...I experienced the same thing. It is perfectly normal as long as you are not running a temp over 101.The cramping is because ur body is passing those clots....try and lay down and tylenol....it should go away...if not try a heat pad...it helped me....again, I am so sorry for ur loss!
Thanks for all of the help... It's just so painful and going through it alone makes it really hard.
I'm sorry for you loss. You should see your doctor or go to the hospital just to be sure everything is ok. I had a similar experience last year after my 2nd d&c, it turned out that I had an infection from the surgery and retained product (both common with d&cs), I spent 3 days in hospital on antibiotics and had a couple of ultrasounds to check my uterus. Your experience may be normal or something to be checked out, if your concerned you should see your doctor, I'm glad I did.
