I know that all experiences are different/personal, but wondering if anyone can offer some advice.

I found out this morning that my pregnancy is not viable (blighted ovum). I am about 8 weeks. I have the option to schedule a D&C next week, but also filled a prescription for misoprostol (Cytotec) that I am leaning towards using this weekend. My original “plan” was to take the first dose tomorrow morning, but now I’m wondering if I should do it tonight instead.

My husband will be home all weekend to look after our DD, so I can rest as needed, but part of me is worried she may be upset if mommy is “out of commission” tomorrow while she is awake, so wondering if I should try to force the process to at least start overnight while she is asleep. I think it will be emotionally even more difficult for me if my DD is upset, too. She has a “knack” for always wanting the parent who is least available at any particular moment

I have no idea what to expect, physically, so not sure if it’s something I want to go through alone overnight, either. Of course, hubby will support as needed, but also don’t want him to be exhausted tomorrow when DD needs at least one functional parent.

Any advice?
