Unfortunately, it looks like my pregnancy is not viable. After great betas (3500+ at 4 weeks), this past week (week 7), my beta leveled off between Monday and Thursday (slight increase but nothing close to doubling) so they had me come in today (Fri) and it had basically remained level to Thursday (again, slight increase but nothing really). My ultrasound still showed the sack & yolk with growth but my RE says we'll do a D&C on Monday b/c it doesn't look good.
Has anyone on here had a D&C? Were you able to do things afterwards? I'm trying to decide what I do about work and if I should move some of my meetings on Monday afternoon to a different day. TIA!

I'm so very sorry for your loss. ((HUGS)) to you!
Mine was on a Thursday and I went back to work on Monday. (However, I do have Friday's off). You'll need at least a couple of days. So, you'll certainly need to move those Monday meetings to later in the week (or possibly the next week).
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
I am so sorry for your loss.
I had mine on a Friday, I took it easy on Saturday, and was pretty much fine by Sunday.
I really was slightly crampy, but that was about it.
I had mine on a Friday and went back to work on Monday. I had been off since Wednesday and was ready to get my mind onto something other than my mc.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss.
I'm so sorry.
I wasn't working when I had my last D&C so I had as much time as I needed. For my 1st one, I took the week off, mostly for emotional reasons. I definately wouldn't plan on going back to work the same day. I hope it goes as smoothly as possible for you. ((hugs))
Currently pg with our 1st after 6.5 yrs of IF (thank you IVF)
