I think the mental exhaustion plays a huge part in the healing. Are you sleeping? I felt completely rundown after my d&amp;c and turned into a really restless, overthinking insomniac. My doctor actually prescribed sleeping tablets - and the sleep really helped boost me back up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2196178 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 09:25:43 +0000 Pirouette 2196178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no advice, but i am so sorry :heart: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2196029 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 07:41:38 +0000 Alivoo01 2196029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So sorry you had to go through this. For me, the first day was a total "do not count I'm human", but once the anesthesia wore off completely, I think the 2 days post operation was when I felt here and now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2196006 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 07:16:46 +0000 ms.line 2196006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry. I haven't had a D&amp;C, but I'd imagine it's terribly draining mentally and emotionally - that could be contributing to you exhaustion, too. I hope you feel better soon. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195999 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 07:06:22 +0000 SweetiePie 2195999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AprilFool: Oh yeah, @LovelyPlum: has a good point. You might be depleted!<br /> Will keep you in my thoughts :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195967 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 03:58:58 +0000 AprilFool 2195967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: Thank you. :heart: It's been a week but the last few days have been worse than right after. I think I will take the iron and if that doesn't help, see the GP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195938 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 00:31:18 +0000 simplyfelicity 2195938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AprilFool: I'm terribly sorry. :sad: How long ago was your D&amp;C? I was tired the day of and a little sore but it mostly went away within a couple days. I was emotionally exhausted, though. Maybe call your OB just for peace of mind?<br /> Be good to yourself. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195936 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 00:17:47 +0000 AprilFool 2195936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: @LovelyPlum: @SweetiePie: Thank you :heart: </p> <p>@SweetiePie: Yes anaesthesia. That definitely could be it. </p> <p>@LovelyPlum: Some iron is probably a good idea. I will pick that and some stool softeners up. Thanks for the tip! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195864 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 21:50:14 +0000 Greentea 2195864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AprilFool: aw honey I'm sorry :( I hope you feel better soon. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195859 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 21:46:34 +0000 LovelyPlum 2195859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have a D&amp;C, but I bled a lot with my natural miscarriages. Iron supplements really helped me a lot, because I was super anemic afterwards. Just a note of warning if you do go this way: get a stool softener, because iron can clog you up.</p> <p>I'm so sorry for your loss :sad: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195824 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 21:19:53 +0000 SweetiePie 2195824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First of all, I'm sorry you went through this :-(<br /> Were you under anesthesia? That might be contributing to why you're feeling so exhausted. I think it was a good 24-48 hours before I felt like I wasn't in a haze.<br /> It goes without saying but be kind to yourself. Get lots and lots of rest! I just laid in bed for days and watched movies and let my husband wait on me. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/exhaustion-after-dampc#post-2195820 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 21:14:39 +0000 AprilFool 2195820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am exhausted, small tasks take a lot of effort. It's as bad as the first trimester. How long did it take for you to feel normal? </p>
