I just found out today, that I lost my baby. So besides myself. How do I recover from this loss? I have to have a D n C done in a few days, not really sure what to expect.
I am so sorry for your loss. It is really hard and at this point my advice is to do whatever you need to in order to get through the day. I also recommend posting on the miscarriage/pregnancy loss board.

Big hugs to you. So sorry for your loss. Recovery (f you call it that) takes time. The D&C, typically, is basically painless (they usually put you under general anesthesia), and recovery time varies. I've had 2, and felt like I was, basically, having my period afterwards. There is typically cramping, but you should not have any major pain or discomfort.
I am really sorry for your loss. Everyone grieves their losses differently, so take all of the time that you need to heal. I had a miscarriage earlier this year, but it wasn't through a D & C. You may like to visit the Trying to Conceive After A Loss (TTCAL) board (even though you may not try to actively conceive for a while, that board helped me a lot and answered so many of my questions). Sending hugs!
I am so sorry to hear this!! I was in this same scenario a few months ago. We found out our baby didnt have a heartbeat at 9 weeks and opted to do a D&C. This is never very easy, but what got me through is was knowing that something was not right with the baby and this was God's/Natures way of telling us that. Just remember that everything happens for a reason (even though is is so hard) and take time for yourself to heal through this process. Hugs to you!!
