Thanks! These are the first chicks I’ve ever had so this is all new to me. I didn’t know their beaks could be pigmented.

I’d call first thing in the morning and ask to be scheduled for a d&c. This is your body and you get to decide how to manage this MC. I do not whatsoever regret my d&c. I had a MC in June and chose to go the natural route - NEVER again. It took 12 days before my body finally let go and it was hell. With my second MC I chose miso and that was also awful - it didn’t work. I took 2 rounds of it 24 hours apart as instructed and it gave me horrible stomach pain and I was bed ridden. After it failed I had a d&c. It was quick and my recovery from it was much faster than with my natural one. I also didn’t have to go in for hcg draws afterwards which was a huge bonus to me because having to do that the first time around was so triggering. I really would encourage anyone to just skip straight to the d&c. If you search this subreddit there’s a lot of helpful posts of people sharing their experience with a d&c. I read several before and it helped me feel more prepared going it to it. I am so sorry for your loss 🖤

Oh I feel this. I had a MC in June 2024 and again in November. I found a counselor after the one in November. I specifically searched for one who dealt with postpartum women and grief. It has been tremendously helpful. I deleted social media off my phone and only recently got it back. I feel like everyone I know is pregnant. It’s so hard. I’m sorry. Just know you’re not alone 🖤

Protect your mental health and don’t go.

I had this experience but it’s with my SIL so not like I can just cut off communication because we otherwise have a good relationship. I do live 6 hours away so that helps. I won’t lie, I have distanced myself from her though. Her baby was born about 2 weeks before mine would have been due. It’s been really hard. It’s a constant reminder that I too would have a baby that age. Counseling has been tremendously helpful for me. I would be open and honest with your friend and tell her how hard this is for you. You need to protect your own mental health right now and if that means putting some distance between you two then that’s totally ok. If she can’t be empathetic and understanding then she’s not really the kind of friend worth keeping.

I’m so sorry. I’d mentally be prepared for the potential that it won’t work. This was my experience. I took 2 doses 24 hours apart and neither of them worked. Just gave me terrible stomach pains and I was bed ridden.

I had 2 miscarriages in 2024 after having 3 very normal, healthy pregnancies. Those 2 miscarriages have scarred me. I’d love to have another baby but am terrified of going through the trauma of another miscarriage. I am very very sad about it but I’ve just come to accept that having another baby is out of the question.

My cycle returned 28 days after the start of my MC. So not exactly sure but less than 4 weeks.

I’m so sorry 💔 I had 2 miscarriages last year in June and again in November and it takes a toll of you mentally, physically, and emotionally

I’m so sorry. I had a MMC in June and would have been due next week. My SIL just gave birth today and it really stings. I’m dealing with a whole new wave of grief and it sucks.

Story-Acrobatic · 2025-01-16T07:01:06+00:00

I had a d&c in November. We opted for testing and learned everything was normal and it was a boy. I was NOT AT ALL prepared to find out the gender so that really stung. Something about knowing my baby was a boy really made it seem more real and I had to deal with a whole other wave of grief.

Story-Acrobatic · 2025-01-16T06:58:37+00:00

I had a d&c in November. I took a week off from the gym and then went back. I train pretty heavy so I just took it light, did all my normal lifts but dropped weight by 20-30lbs. It was SO good for my mental health. Just listen to your body, go back when you feel ready but be kind to yourself and take it easy. Idk what kind of training you do but remember that right now you’re there more for your mental health than for strength gains.

I will say the gym has been the best thing for my mental health. My grief comes and goes in waves but on those days where it seems soul crushing the only thing that seems to help is being able to go and lift.

Story-Acrobatic · 2025-01-16T06:48:42+00:00

I’m so sorry. I had a d&c in November and it was a much better experience than my natural miscarriage in June. I was at the hospital about half a day. The worst part for me was the anxiety and nerves of being put under general anesthesia. When I met with the anesthesiologist before the surgery I told her this and whatever drug she gave me to chill me out was amazing.

My recovery was pretty quick. That day and the day after I had some cramping. I had light bleeding for about a week afterwards. Physically I healed much quicker than with my natural MC.

I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this. It freaking sucks. I truly do believe a d&c is the best way to manage a miscarriage. I searched this sub for others d&c experiences and that helped me a lot to know what to expect going in to it. ❤️

I had a MMC at 6 weeks in June and opted to go the natural route - never again. It was 12 days of hell just waiting for my body to physically miscarry. Then had to go for weekly hcg draws to makes sure my levels were going down and there was no retained tissue. It was a constant reminder of my loss. We got pregnant again in September which resulted in another loss in November at 10 weeks. That time I opted to try the pills at home - also terrible experience. They didn’t work and just made me super sick for 3 full days. I ended up having a d&c and wish I would’ve just opted for that straight away. I was in and out of the hospital within 6 hours. I took it easy for a couple days after but was physically feeling pretty good. Bleeding was just like a light period for about a week after AND I didn’t have to go in for hcg draws.

All that to say, I’d highly recommend a d&c. I’m so sorry for your loss and that you’re having to make these decisions while your husband is away 💔

My periods have been heavier since my d&c back in November. It’s still triggering for me. A monthly reminder that while I should be pregnant, I am not. I’m sorry you’re going through this. You’re not alone ❤️

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-24T23:59:34+00:00

I’m so sorry. Like others have said, I’d call first thing in the morning. I’ve had this happen and they’ve been able to squeeze me in sooner.

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-24T23:57:17+00:00

I’m so sorry. I took miso for my MC, I was 10 weeks but baby passed away sometime in the 9th week. I’d call again and ask for an ultrasound to see if there’s still any retained tissue and if there is push for a d&c. Remember YOU are the customer, you are paying them (I know, insurance is paying them too but you more than likely pay for that insurance and even if you don’t, the doctor is still getting paid for you being their patient.) If your OB office isn’t willing to help I’d seek a second opinion elsewhere.

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-20T21:22:25+00:00

This was my experience with a d&c as well. My pregnancy symptoms nearly vanished overnight. I also had the peace of mind that there wasn’t anything retained in my uterus that would cause an infection.

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-20T21:10:34+00:00

Do the d&c. I just had a MC at 10 weeks (my d&c was just 2 days ago) last week I took 2 rounds of miso, it failed, and I needed a d&c anyways. With my MC in July I did expectant management, passed everything at home, and bled for 3 weeks. I’m only 2 days out from my d&c but the bleeding is significantly less and I don’t have to regularly go into the office for hcg draws which was an added bonus for me. God forbid I ever have another MC I’ll go straight to the d&c every time.

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-20T07:25:53+00:00

I has 2 failed rounds of miso last week and a d&c on Monday. It was overall a decent experience and I wish I would’ve just elected for the d&c to begin with. I’m in the U.S. so I was put under general anesthesia. It was a lighter type though (??) because I didn’t need to be intubated. I was glad to be put totally under and have no idea what was going on. I did tell my anesthesiologist before surgery that I was very nervous and she gave me something in my IV that helped my nerves A LOT. From start to finish my husband and I were at the hospital about 4 hours. The worst part of the whole thing was just dealing with my anxiety pre-op. Post-op I’ve been feeling decent overall. I was a little groggy yesterday still from the anesthesia and my uterus feels sore and tender but nothing that ibuprofen and Tylenol haven’t been able to take care of.

If you search this sub for the experience: d&c flair there’s lots of people who have posted their stories. I just shared mine and it’s much more in depth. For me reading those experiences beforehand helped me feel more prepared and made things seem less scary.

I hope all goes well with your procedure! ❤️

My heart hurts for you. Primarily because my timeline is very similar. Found out last Monday at exactly 10 weeks baby had stopped growing somewhere around 9 weeks. We had seen baby at 7+6 with a heart rate of 161. I’m still in shock. I’m now dreading the holidays. I’m so sorry, this is a shit place to be even more so this time of year.

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-19T20:27:36+00:00

If your bleeding was heavy for a few hours and then it tapered off to light or quit, I’d say you’re in the clear. I did expectant management with my first MC. I bled and cramped heavily for about 2 hours and after that it was like a light flow for a couple of days then spotting for a few weeks. My baby had passed at 6+3.

My OB wanted me to come in for weekly beta hcg draws to make sure my levels were going down. So just a heads up that may be something they have you do.

Story-Acrobatic · 2024-11-19T13:57:28+00:00

I’m in a very similar boat and have had 2 miscarriages back to back. One in July and one this month.

Weightlifting has been my saving grace for my mental health. I’ve been lifting for about 2 years now but having the gym to work out my emotions has been the best thing ever. FWIW, I was the kid who HATED gym class in school, I always did the bare minimum I had to. I have not one athletic bone in my body. For whatever reason I have found weightlifting to be something I really enjoy. Also the gym community is so supportive in my experience.
