Hi Baby Fever 2007,
Firstly I am so sorry for your loss. Its such an awful time! You just never think it'll happen to you. I also have just miscarried. I had an awful time emotionally and physically. I definitely would advise you to go and see your GP. Physically-I am hoping you have finished bleeding. One of the most important things to ensure is that there is no more conception products left in the uterus. If there is you can get more bleeding and infection. Its so different for everyone so yes it may be that it was only a day and a half for you. Sometimes you may need another u/s to ensure this, I'd actually be pushing your doc to allow you to have an u/s-just so then you know. Emotionally time time time, friends, family. I found this site really helpful, just to know there are so may others that understand.
Also your concerns with the D&C, I can only give you my experience, but after the D&C I felt so much better, no pain, tiny amount of bleeding. As I work in the health industry, and worked a few years in anaesthetics I was probably more scared about the anesthetic side of things then the D&C. As far as looking at it solely on anaesthetic point of view, its pretty much as straight forward for them as it gets. Don't be scared of the ET tube, you won't remember it. Might have a bit of a sore throat.
Although it sounds lame just take it day by day. But definitely get medical advise. Write down all your questions and take them in.
My thoughts are with you. xox
