    Hi guys,

    Sorry for butting in. I check out this thread a lot to see how you are all going. This thread was a great help to me when TTC after my losses, and I like to see how you all are. I understand how hard this journey can be and I am glad you have each other, as I know it can be hard sometimes to find people who understand what you are going through.

    I just saw ems' post and wanted to say that you definitely did what was best for you, and (as hard as it is) try and ignore other peoples ignorance. I also chose not to have a d & c as I did not feel it was the right decision for me, and I also encountered a lot of criticism for it. It was such a hard decision to make, I was in emergency where I had been waiting for 5 hours after the most traumatic day ever after being told at our scan that we were so excited about that our first baby was dead, and was faced with the most awful decision to make. DH was no help at all, and I did not want a d & c. They gave me drugs to make me miscarry and it was a pretty horrible and long experience, as I had to have another lot of drugs, and was close to needing a d & c after even the second lot didn't work. But in the end it all passed and I felt I had done the best thing for me. Even my own mother seemed to be tut-tutting me for not having a d & c, and she has no experience with m/c at all. I also had the feeling that DH thought I had made the wrong decision too, even though he would not help me to choose at all. It really is the last thing you need at a time like this. The most important thing is that you did what was right for YOU. YOU need to feel comfortable with your decision and you do, and that is all that matters!

    Sorry again for butting in girls. I hope to see you all with BFPs as soon as possible!
