Oh big hugs darlingYou'll be able to get lots and lots of good info about GAs and BFing here on BB (if you need it). I think i saw a thread about GAs and BFing in the BFing section just the other day.

Thankyou all so much! The hugs mean the world to me. I am still freaking out a little....hope this wont affect me having any more kids...I think thats what is scaring me the most plus the GA![]()
I will keep you lovely ladies updated xxxxxx
sending you hugs and strength gorgeous one
I have no advice just sending you lots of![]()
Having a curette is much less risky than leaving retained placenta in your uterus which could become infected and cause big problems. I know it sounds scary but it really is pretty straight forward and shouldn't cause any problems with further pregnancies.
You wont be under for long and will be able to breastfeed when you wake up. You will have to fast so that may effect your supply, but i often accidently skip breakfast and it doesn't effect me too much.
Is she sending you for another ultrasound?
Another
ETA- i just thought, perhaps you could do some expressing now to build up a bit of ebm for that day?

Thanks Ange! you have put my mind at ease about a few things...still freaking out though if i do have to have it and being under a GA dont know why maybe cause i have no idea what it will feel like?x
Hi I have had a few curettes done for missed MCs and one after my first baby, retained placenta !!! if they say you need it done get it done, that will be what will stop you from having another baby if you get a bad infection. Why don't you ask about a twilight anesethic, I don't believe it does'nt take long for the currette to be done and you don't feel anything while they do it under a twilight (but are in a lighter sleep, than a GA) you wake up straight away and feel like you have had the best sleep ever, there are no side effects and you can go home soon afterwards, I believe they used to use them for abortions, whether they still do I have no idea? but I think worth asking about.
I have had this done and have had GA a few times now! U will have the best sleep ever! Dont be scared all will be fine!
I have had GA 15 times. It is really nothing to be scared of. You are not aware of anything and won't remember anything about it either. It is not like being asleep in that you don't dream. I love the feeling when you are going under. You will be just fine! Big hugs.
Your first GA is always a bit nerve wracking. Your worry is totally normal.![]()
