Guest guest Posted July 9, 2002 Report Share Posted July 9, 2002 ~ First of all I just wanted to say how sorry I am. And I just wanted to share that I had a miscarriage before I got pregnant with Grace. It was very hard because we were so ready to have a baby. I too had a bad ultrasound tech who was not very kind to me when she said there was no heartbeat. I had to go to the emergency room because I was bleeding so they recommended a D & C and said they could do it that day.So my D & C was done at the hospital in the ambulatory surgical center. I believe it took less than 30 minutes and I was out cold so I did not feel anything. I was in recovery for about an hour after and then moved to the post op room until I felt well enough to go home. I had some cramping for I think a week after that was normal. Mostly it was just the emotions that were the hardest. The doctor explained that because I had all of those hormones in me from being pregnant that my body would go on a rollercoaster ride hormonally and it was normal to feel sad. I too felt like I had done something wrong or that I had failed. It was emotionally hard for about three weeks but then things got better. And because I was ready to try again, once my cycle was back on track we started trying and I was able to get pregnant with Grace.I always believe that she was the baby with me before and she just wasn't ready to be with us yet but that she came back to us My thoughts are with you and the family. I know how hard it is and if you need any moral support let me know if I can help and Grace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
