Bleeding after D&C. Venting.

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

It's been a week since my D&C and I am still bleeding.  I know my doctor told me that I could bleed for two weeks, but I'm just tired of it.  It's not a huge amount, just like regular period. I thought I was going to be lucky to not bleed because I wasn't the day of and after the surgery.  I even went to work the day after.  Since then, I have had to wash my sheets the day after I just put them on because I bled on them.  Seriously, I had JUST PUT THE SHEETS ON an hour before I went to bed!  I woke up at 3:30am to feel that I had leaked and I had to go find the Tide eraser so it wouldn't stain my sheet.  Of course, my sheet is now stained.  Then I had to go buy the most monstrously large overnight pads so that didn't happen again.  Those are awesome (read with sarcasm)! 

At this point, I have been dealing with the miscarriage for almost as long if not longer than I was pregnant.  I've been in a state of wait since Oct 12 the day of my period.  Waiting to conceive.  Waiting to test for pregnancy.  Waiting to go see the Doctor.  Waiting for test results.  Waiting for u/s.  Waiting for MORE tests and u/s.  Waiting for natural miscarriage.  Waiting for D&C.  Now waiting for 2 week follow-up.  After that it is waiting for AF to come again so I can go through more blood tests to see if there is anythig wrong with me.  That's frustrating. 

I'm telling you this, there better be one if not more healthy and successful, stress free pregnancies out there for all of us who are going through this. We deserve it!

    I had a similar experience after my d&c last year so I can totally relate!

    It's been two weeks since I took cytotec this time around and I'm *still* spotting/bleeding so I hear you.... it all around sucks.
