Hiya everyone...

I wanna say a big thanks for all the support!! It has been a rough wee while but I am feeling MUCH better now! Everything you guys have said has been a big help, I don't think I would've managed without it!

Was feeling very sorry for myself as none of my friends have been in contact after finding out what has happened so it has been a bit lonely, I am giving them the benefit of the doubt and assuming that no one knows what to say... it has been amazing knowing that there is a bunch of gals here who have been so fab!!

MANY MANY THANKS!!

I had a d & c also, but because I was so young I didn't really know what my options were, and the whole thing is a bit of a blur. I guess the best advice I can give is to trust yourself and your midwife and if the idea of a d & c freaks you out so much, maybe give yourself some time to see if it all happens naturally, and if not in a few days have the d & c. But if your midwife is supportive of you going naturally, I would trust that.]]> Mon, 15 Aug 2005 09:06:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13459&title=bugger#13459 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13457&title=bugger#13457 Author: Roksana

hI anna, I had a D&C after my miscarriage, and athough not scared of needles, I found the whole thing stressful mainly just because of why your there. however the staff were great and very understanding. Unfortunately sometimes it's a nessasery evil. I think sometimes they try to do it so quickly you don't get a chance to come to grips with the fact that you've lost baby. I felt a lot of pressure to have my done, but in saying that I had a 3 year old son and couldn't afford any complications from doing it naturally for his sake. Good luck in what you decide, thinking about you.]]> Mon, 15 Aug 2005 06:53:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13453&title=bugger#13453 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13434&title=bugger#13434 Author: mumstheword

Hi I am so sorry for you.. My love is coming your way, I have had 4 m/c 2 naturally and 2 d&c, 1st 2 where ok but with 2nd 2 I developed a temp and didnt feel to flash so had d&c to make sure it was all out ok and so i didnt risk infection, I hate needles to but before i had them thay gave me some tablets to helpme relax, ask for them if you decide on a D&C it makesit alot easier to cope...

Hi Anna, although I had bleeding when I miscarried I also had a D & C just to "make sure". I am usually freaked out by needles etc. but I think I was still too shocked to resist really. I am glad I had it done though because firstly it made sure everything was cleaned out and secondly they could do tests to make sure everything was ok. I had to stay in hospital overnight but Peter was there almost the whole time and really supportive. Look after yourself. ]]> Sat, 13 Aug 2005 20:35:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13411&title=bugger#13411 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13407&title=bugger#13407 Author: angel

What a horrid time for you I havent had a miscarriage but from what i understand the worry is that the baby wont come away naturally and that you will hemmorage. If you really are against getting the D & C done you should talk to an obstitrician (Sp)about your risks etc. You will prob need an internal (like after giving birth) to make sure all the placenta etc has come away. You really do sound like you need more info to make a decision!]]> Sat, 13 Aug 2005 14:17:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13397&title=bugger#13397 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13396&title=bugger#13396 Author: AnnaD

Thanks for all your sympathy everyone... it really means a lot to me.

I need some more help...

After my scan yesterday, i was booked in for a "clinic" on Monday. This is basically where I get a D&C. I started bleeding (very lightly) yesterday so had to go into the A&E. They were intent on doing a D&C then but when they tried to put a drip in my hand in didn't work, same thing for a drip in my arm. At this stage I was so worked up that I couldn't handle anything more so they let me leave as my bleeding was not bad. they have told me to go back if I start bleeding heavily. I am still booked in to go in and get everything done on Monday.

I don't think I can go through with this. My mum is baffled as to how I can give birth to a ten pound baby with no pain relief but can't handle a needle. But I honestly don't think i can do it, the D&C to me is far too invasive and I would cope better letting it go naturally. I now know what to lookfor in terms of signs that i must go to the hospital and will if need be but i am hoping not to.

My question is this, for those of you who have miscarried, have you had the D&C or has it happened naturally? My midwife is very supportive of letting me go naturally but I need reassurance. Please tell me that this will be ok?]]> Sat, 13 Aug 2005 12:47:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13396&title=bugger#13396 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=856&PID=13387&title=bugger#13387 Author: Xander&Harmony
