What are your thoughts about getting a D&C done? I’ve been told by a few ppl I might have to but I’m a stubborn ass person & im not going to just wanted to see some other options.
@blessedmomof4, I don’t blame you one bit. I was up all night contemplating whether or not to go through with it. I knew I was over ten weeks but baby was only measuring 5.6 weeks but I just didn’t think I could do it. I finally decided I couldn’t go through with it and was going to go and demand another ultrasound before I would have it done but then I started bleeding and having very large clots a few hours before I was suppose to be at the hospital so I went through with it. I’m emotionally drained. It has took a huge toll on me. I really hope for the best for you and that maybe a miracle will happen. I don’t understand how people have abortions, losing this baby has tore me to pieces.
@one_coolmama, thanks momma so was I but Hod has different plans I guess. But I’m not gonna give up. We will try again just not sure as to when I’ll be ready to
@blessedmomof4, I know it’s no way to prepare for it I’m really was hoping for a better out come for you
@one_coolmama, I did start cramping today so I’m hoping it just gets itself over with. This dam waiting game is making me crazy
@mommyjo1619, if my bleeding starts I’m ope to it but if it doesn’t I’m not.
I had mine today. I started bleeding really bad this morning so I knew I needed to go through with it. I was doubting myself like crazy until the bleeding started. It wasn’t bad physically but I am an emotional mess. My doctor told me it wouldn’t effect my fertility and it doesn’t increase your chance of miscarriage and that if I want to try to get pregnant again that I can try as soon as the bleeding stops. Apparently the sooner you try the higher chance of a healthy pregnancy is according to the nurse practitioner at my doctors office.
@spookylyn, thank you girly. I’ll definitely keep you updated. Hopefully it’s a miracle outcome praying for that.
@spookylyn, that’s what I’m doing I’m just waiting and hoping for good news. I can only pray and be patient
@spookylyn, yea I’m not to sure how long it’s been I just found out Thursday my baby didn’t have a heartbeat but at yesterday check up baby measures were 2 weeks behind. They already wanted to do a d&c but I’m just to stubborn for that so I’m trying to let it happen on it’s own
@blessedmomof4, I’m always happy to help. We all need support :) I wish you the best.
@madgypsy04, I have the only option they gave me was a D&C . It is very hard although I think I’m doing ok with it. And thank u for being so supportive I know it’s hard on u as wel & im sorry you have had to go through it as well. It’s though as moms to loss something so special to us.
@blessedmomof4, I’m so sorry you have to go through this, I know it can be emotionally taxing. There are other options such as seeing if your body will complete the miscarriage or the doctor can give you medication to help, however, these options can take longer and don’t guarantee a complete removal of tissue which can cause issues later on. Have you talked to your doctor yet? My heart goes out to you. Everyday I worry that I’m going to have another blighted ovum but all we can do is be as healthy as we can and stay positive.
@madgypsy04, oh ok. I’m just trying to see what others think because I’m so stubborn about it. I wanna see how other women get through it and what their experiences were so I can have a better judgment on it. My sis had 3 MC & never did a D&C . But I just thought I’d ask around because I haven’t started bleeding or cramping or anything but my baby stopped growing 2 weeks ago n has no heartbeat so I was just wondering if a D&C was my best option or not.? I’m still unsure but it helps to know others stories
@blessedmomof4, from what I’ve read and from what my doctors said it doesn’t affect your fertility and it doesn’t increase your chance of miscarriage. Normally miscarriages are caused because of chromosomal abnormalities.
@madgypsy04, I’ve heard it can also effect ur fertility in the future as well as a higher risk of miscarring again
@mommyjo1619, yea it’s definitely draining and confusing.! I don’t know how ppl do it either. Like going threw this is so hard on my heart u literally have to not have a heart to have an abortion.! It’s tough hoping for a miracle as well. Only god knows why or what will happen
