No good
Kinipela7

Doc said that nothing has changed since the last ultrasound 2 weeks ago. They took blood again, but are not hopeful at all. She said that I can wait to have the baby pass naturally, I could take medicine to help it along or I could have a D&C. I have no idea what to do! We are crushed, but were not blindsided which made it a little better I guess. I'm terrified of all of my options as well.
Good luck to all you ladies!! If I can I'm going to still lurk around. H & H 9 months to you all!

Re: No good
I am so sorry. What devastating news.
I'm really really sorry again. T&P's to you
I am so sorry.
There are pros and cons to all of the options. Personally, I was not able to wait for the baby to pass naturally when I miscarried. It had stopped growing 3.5 weeks before I found out, so there's no telling how long it would have been before I passed the baby on my own. I opted for Cytotec, but if it ever happens again, I am going to have a D&C.
If you are in the process of making that decision and really don't have a good idea about what you want to do, I would suggest checking out the Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss board to get some feedback and personal experiences. It might help come to terms with what is best for you.

I am so so sorry!!!
I had a D&E (pretty much the same as a D&C) so PM me if you want any info about it.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you have a support system in your life to help you grieve your loss.
I am an "all natural" kind of person, so when I miscarried I thought I wanted to just wait for it to happen. It started to happen on its own and it was the most difficult day of my life. I was an emotional wreck and the pain was unbearable (I almost passed out from it). I ended up having to go in for a D and C and I wish I would have done it sooner. It was a much easier way to get closure than sitting in my bathroom balling my eyes out.
I am so very sorry for your loss
If you are still struggling with what to do now, the miscarriage board is full of information. Or feel free to PM me, I have had a D&C and have waited for it to happen naturally. It's not an easy choice, each has it's advantages and disadvantages. But it helps to know what to expect.

I am so sorry for your loss. ((((hugs))))
I opted for the D&C but ended up miscarrying natural the following day. After a month of spotting, I ended up having to get a D&C anyway since all the tissue didn't pass on it's own.
peace,

So sorry for your loss.
I was given Misoprostol for my last m/c. I read horror stories on the internet and was freaking out about how bad it would be. I took it before bed on a friday night and it honestly wasn't too bad. I didn't have pain killers or anything and I was ok. I would probably opt for that again instead of a surgical procedure if given the choice.
Whatever you decide, my thoughts are with you.
