Kellie,

Firstly I am so sorry for your loss. I cant tell you what to expect after a D&C as I havent had one yet.

Secondly thankyou for asking this question, I was going to do that today.

I am booked in 2morrow for a D&C and it scares the h**** out of me!! But after reading your replies I feel much more at ease.

I was given options when I was told I had a blighted Ovum, and the D&C seemed the best way for me. I couldnt' stand to sit around waiting for things to happen naturally, I think this would mess me too much.

All I can suggest is if you can get a couple of days off work to at least physically recover.

I have told my DH and close friends sorry already because I know my emotions will be stuffed for at lease a few days, they are so supportive. I felt telling them was the best for me as this seems to have helped ease my pain to no end.

Do what you think is right for you as each woman is different.

Surround yourself around people who can understand what you are going through, I was surprised at how many girls experience this - use BB as your most supportive friend

Thinking of you.
