So as much as I want to just "be over this"...last night was awfully strange...and entirely different than my first D+C.

Yesterday was fine, except that I feel like they were a lot less judicious with the sedation...not only do I not remember anything from the procedure, but it took me a bit longer to wake up, and, most tellingly, I actually can't remember the immediate pre-op period, even before they gave me any drugs.

Anyway, I felt pretty good through the day yesterday with only a bit of cramping and minimal spotting. Then, in the middle of the night last night, I got up to go to the bathroom...and developed severe, almost unbearable cramping, lasting almost an hour (and subsiding only after I woke DH, took pain meds, then ibuprofen, and found a heating pad). Since my procedure, I've had no significant bleeding. Last time I had intermittent bleeding/spotting for 3 weeks with very manageable (fairly mild) cramping.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? I'm just surprised that, so far, my experiences have been so different...and am wondering, is one of these more "normal"?
