Multiple D&C

[Sazy26]

I'm preparing for the news that I'm going to have to have a D&C. I'm scared because this will be my 4th one and am worried it will decrease the chance of me ever being able to fall pregnant again. Has anyone had multiple D& Cs and been able to have a healthy pregnancy afterwards???

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm not sure what to tell you...I hope that there is someone on here who has been in your situation and can help...

I'm very sorry for what you are going through.  I m/c naturally, so I really don't know anything about D&C's.  Will they start doing testing soon, to discover why this keeps happening?

i had 2 d and c's within 5 months.  One in Oct 07 and one in Feb 08.  then by June 08, i found out i was pregnant again and i am now 24 weeks along.  as long as your doctor did a good job, you should have no problem.  the only thing they worry about is scar tissue which if it happens, you can have removed in one quick procedure.

Thank you to you all for responding to my message. The truth is I'm a wreck. I wanted this so badly and now it's gone. I cant stop crying and now I need to make a decision about how to have the contents of my babies removed. I don't think I'm in a position to make any decisions right now. Sorry I'm so depressing,

It's perfectly understandable for you to be so sad.  Lots of women here have gone through the exact same excruiciating decision.  When they told me on a Thurs I was going to m/c I chose to wait through the weekend to see what would happen before scheduling the D&C.  But all my friends and some co-workers had their opinions on what I should do.  I did m/c over the weekend and finally lost my baby mon morning while getting ready for work.  I was so traumatized since I hadn't known what to expect.
In the end you will do what is best for you and your family.  I guess all I'm trying to say is that what you are going through is normal and you don't have to apologize for being sad.  You are in my prayers and I wish you the best of luck.  Please feel free to post if you ever need to vent.
