miscarriage

[lil_nikki87]

Hi there I would be 13 weeks tomorrow. But today I had my 12 week ultrasound and before they said anything I saw it was undersized and with no heart beat. They said it looks like I lost it at around the 9 week mark. But I'm not feeling that sad about it I had a little cry because of the way I away it was lying there not moving nothing, but I'm really ok about it. I have 2 healthy girls already so its not like its my first or anything. But my question is that I have to now have a curet (or however you spell it), has anyone been through this and what are your experiences?
Thankyou

I've had a D&C after the natural birth of my son I miscarried at 16wks.
I gave birth to him in the hospital at what should have been 17wks. But on my 16wk check up - he didn't have a heart beat.
Him and I were perfectly healthy and the tested showed nothing wrong with him.
2 days later I had extreme cramping. There was a piece of placenta in the opening of my cervix, and as it was trying to close, it caused pain because of the blockage. So I had to go and have a D&C.
I felt great - physically - after that (as in no pain, but still bled for 2wks)
But the emotional pain from losing a child is what got to me. Still does. I should be 28wks right now, but instead - I've been without him for 11wks.
I wish you the best - just don't put on an act because it will come back to bite you in the a$$ in the end. Grieve if you need to.

I had a miscarriage last year at 15 weeks and had a d&c. I felt it was the easier option for me then actually going through labor pains with an induction. The hospital experience wasn't awful (the dialation method was uncomfortable, they inserted seaweed stick things in begin the process the night before the procedure, not sure if that is the norm, sorry if tmi) and the recover was easy for me, but the worst thing for me was the depression that came with losing a baby. It would have been my first. I am sorry for your loss and hope you have a speedy recovery.

All I have heard about is a D &C... It gets the baby and stuff out and cleans your insides out... So sorry! It was/is still your baby! You may grieve later... You may still be in a little shock.. Hope everything goes well.
