Re: Urgent advise needed m/c & D&C mentioned

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I'm sorry you're going through this. I know how awful it is to get

such bad news. I would say that if you saw the baby but no

heartbeat was seen, along with the bleeding are pretty sure signs

that the baby is no longer alive. It might be good for your peace

of mind to hold off for a week and see if you miscarry naturally,

especially since you are bleeding, you might miscarry naturally.

I'm sending hugs your way.

If you have a D & C, be sure to request that you are not awake during

the procedure. I thought this would be a given, but I was awake

during my D & E and it was awful. Some women don't mind being awake,

but it was way too emotional for me. I'm not sure what to expect

for a 7 week pregnancy because I was further along, but I'm sure

other ladies can chime in. I'm sorry

Hi

I am so sorry to hear you are going through this...Unfortuanetly I went through

a very similar situation in august and I know the roller coaster that you are

riding on right now...I was about six weeks when I started bleeding...my dr put

me on modified rest (as I work in a special ed preschool and have a very

physical job) they were hoping it may have just been a clot from

implantation....so they were doing u/s every week and kept saying that it was a

very early preg and hard to tell..by my seventh week they did an u/s and thought

they saw a weak h/b but it was really my own...by the eighth week my dr saw that

it was still only a yolk sak and termed it a " blighted ovum " where the egg

fertilizes and implants but never grows from there...he also gave me the two

options..but wanted me to m/c on my own if possible b/c as he put it " nature can

do a much better job than I can " with the risk (even though it is small) of

infection/scar tissue from a D & C..I m/c on my own about two days after

that u/s ( it was not that bad more of a fear of the unknown...just very heavy

bleeding and some mild cramping..which I had been having for the past two weeks

...it was more of a fear of the unknown)....I don;t know how long he would have

let me go though had I not...It really is a choice that you have to make....good

luck and please know that you are in my thoughts..I hope this helped...sorry it

was so wordy...
