Met with the doctor today. My beta is still over 15,800. It doesn't look like this is going to happen naturally anytime soon, so we set the D&C. She was able to get me in tonight so at least I don't have to dwell on it for too long. I want this to be over, but I'm so upset about doing the D&C. I feel very sad and angry that my body wouldn't just do it on its own. I'm really scared about the procedure and being in an OR again.
BFP#2 7/3/13. U/S at 6w4d showed 1 heartbeat at 127 bmp and 2 empty sacs. MMC discovered at 10w4d. D&C 8/27/13. Pathology showed normal boy. Missing our babies every day. BFP#3 10/29/13! Beta#1 at 4w5d - 2141, beta#2 at 5w1d - 7651! U/S 11/21/13 showed baby measuring 2 days ahead with a heartbeat of 127 bmp!
I'm so sorry your body isn't doing things on its own.
Good luck tonight. The procedure itself is not bad at all, as you're obviously put under. I found the anticipation leading up to it is much worse, and recovery was a breeze. Physically at least.
Good luck. I just had mind yesterday. The procedure is very stress free. The worst part for me was being dehydrated and having small veins so I was poked multiple times to get an IV. Sometimes the d&c is better because you know that everything has come out. Even people who had a natural MC end up having a d&c later because the body didn't expel everything.

Will be thinking of you tonight!
