    Hi bbwish,
    Well yea I understand that there could be possible side effects with a d&c, but as a young girl going through this for the first time and not even knowing what the hell a D&C is... well I didnt know what to do. All I kept thinking was How long is this going to be? How painful is this going to be? And Im going to have to watch my baby come out of me? The Doctors assured me that it would be like a normal period and if I had any pain to take a tylenol. WELL, it was not that easy at all. I was in excruciating pain, had to be taken to the ER 4 times in 3 weeks, I was on morphene and it still didnt ease the pain, there was so much blood that even my kidneys got infected, I had to watch my baby come out of me.. I saw everything.. Its been almost a year and I can still remember all of it like it was yesterday.

    Nothing against your opinion at all, but in my case I would risk some scarring compared to the emotional scarring this has done to me.

    Wow, what a horrible experience! Yes I agree, in some cases a D&C is much preferred! Of course it various from person to person, but I do think, in "normal" circumstances a natural miscarriage is better. I think it helps with the healing process. But everyone to his/her own of course!
