Saffy, I really hope you won't need this advice because your baby defies the dr's predictions.

But I wanted to respond anyway. I didn't have any significant pain after the day of my d & c's (i've had three). Didn't need to take any further pain relief after the day of the operation. I think the advice was: no sex or baths (and presumably swimming) for 2 weeks. In relation to the bleeding: I believe most people don't bleed too much or for too long. (My bleeding went on a long time but that isn't typical and related to issues with the pregnancy, not the d & c).
