But at least it is another step toward hopefully better things! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1844425 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 19:37:49 +0000 jaguar 1844425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: Good luck tomorrow chick - let us know how you go! x </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1844336 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 18:03:10 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1844336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Update: I had a total of 2 weeks of bleeding this time (after I started passing dark clots 3 days post-D+C...). I wound up taking a lot of ibuprofen for cramping those first few days. My OB follow-up is tomorrow. Onward and upward, I suppose! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820583 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:45:38 +0000 simplyfelicity 1820583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: My "pitch" wasn't really clear because I wasn't sure what it should look like either. :happy: I hope you will join us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820573 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:37:02 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1820573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: Thank you! :heart: I think that makes a lot of sense (although, I have to admit, initially I wasn't sure what you had in mind)! Like you, I wish it weren't necessary... :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820480 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 19:36:17 +0000 simplyfelicity 1820480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: @FliegepilzHut: @mrs bunchy: Hey, ladies! I made the post. Don't feel obligated to join, I just thought that with so many recent losses, one place to discuss would be nice for whenever we need it. :heart:</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beyond-miscarriage-support#post-1820474" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beyond-miscarriage-support#post-1820474</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820445 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 19:08:28 +0000 jaguar 1820445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: Oh, thanks for making me feel a bit more normal. My cervix is usually quite high and hard to find, but I was horrified to feel how low it was. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820441 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 19:00:34 +0000 travelgirl1 1820441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: The one thing that stood out about my miscarriage pain is how low it was, so low, I'd never felt period pains or anything there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820423 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 18:25:29 +0000 jaguar 1820423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't passed any clots - which I'm hoping is because the OB said he did a thorough job in terms of the curettage. But the bleeding is just on and off constantly. </p> <p>My cervix feels REALLY low. Like, lower than I've ever felt before during TTC all these years, and even after childbirth. Is that weird? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820418 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 18:18:00 +0000 jaguar 1820418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: @jaguar: @FliegepilzHut: @mrs bunchy</p> <p>Absolutely, I'd be interested.

I do hope that you will find support from one another as you are experiencing your losses so close to one another. :heart: </p> <p>@mrs bunchy: I was not aware of your loss as I had not seen you check in on the IF thread for a bit. :bummed: I'm sorry for your loss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820147 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 11:46:29 +0000 mrs bunchy 1820147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: no way!!

Wednesday I passed 2 large clots after taking the methergine... Now it's just some weird pinches and brown blood.. Red blood. Red blood HEAVY.. Brown blood,.. round and round we go ! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820079 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 09:48:54 +0000 simplyfelicity 1820079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: @FliegepilzHut: @mrs bunchy: My OB said to wait a week but I am still bleeding. Have any of you been passing large clots? It's really weird. I also have a heaviness in my uterus, too, and wake up feeling like I have done a million crunches (yeah, no...)</p> <p>So, I have a thought...we all seem to be finding each other on the boards in various posts and was thinking we could make a post of our own to support each other, ask questions, rant etc. What do y'all think?<br /> Eta: wow, wrote this before coffee and barely made an ounce of sense! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820035 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 08:25:09 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1820035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here's a link to an earlier thread...although there aren't that many individual responses:</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-bleed-after-dampc#post-1241963" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-bleed-after-dampc#post-1241963</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1820033 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 08:16:46 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1820033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: Your current experience sounds very normal to me. :goodluck: I had the faintest pink spotting yesterday, mild cramping, and a better night, taking ibuprofen 3 times a day and using a heating pad. Right now, I just feel sore...and I'm worried that this cramping means that there are things that should be being expelled, but aren't. :bummed:</p> <p>ETA: Online it says bleeding may only last a couple of days...but most women I've heard say their bleeding lasted at least 2-3 weeks. :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819993 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 06:34:44 +0000 mrs bunchy 1819993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: I am the exact same with bleeding right now! I hate it, my OB said no baths for 2 weeks !!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819959 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 03:44:08 +0000 jaguar 1819959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: How are you feeling now?</p> <p>I'm now nearly 6days past the d&amp;c and still bleeding, and a bit of a heaviness in my uterus, but cramping a bit better. I just want the bleeding to stop. It dies down, goes brown, then I feel a gush and it's red again. Like a never ending period right now.</p> <p>Did anyone get info on when you can take a bath? I just want a hot, hot, soak. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819802 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 21:19:52 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1819802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: Thank you! :heart: </p> <p>@Tidybee: I understand. It's probably the case for me, too (bad luck, not progesterone)...but because it took 2 years and IVF to get pregnant this second time, we're being especially cautious. :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819790 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 21:05:59 +0000 Tidybee 1819790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: yeah it was at the beginning of July. Insurance doesn't cover an RPL panel, and my doc thinks I just got unlucky twice or that it was a progesterone issue. I'm trying to decide if I should take clomid or just suppositories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819742 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 20:28:57 +0000 simplyfelicity 1819742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: I wish the same for you. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819736 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 20:21:15 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1819736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: I'm glad you finally got some sleep and felt better. :heart: I am certainly hoping for a better night tonight. Was your 2nd D+C recent (or just vivid because of the intense pain)? Will you have a RPL work-up, too?</p> <p>@simplyfelicity: I sincerely hope that you never have to go through this again... :goodluck: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819715 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 19:46:29 +0000 simplyfelicity 1819715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs bunchy: I am so sorry but it seems like you are on a path for answers. :heart: </p> <p>I don't have much of a story. I started TTC in April, got a BFP which ended in a CP (it was so early that my period was only one day late) had a wonky cycle in May, got pregnant again in June and found out it was a blighted ovum at 10 weeks and just had my D&amp;C on Monday. My OB thinks it's just a fluke. I haven't been on this journey long but it's been a pretty discouraging one so far. I know mine pales in comparison to some but it still sucks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819641 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 18:21:45 +0000 Tidybee 1819641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also had my second one and I felt so much worse than my first. It could be because I was further along. All night long I had this intense burning in my abdomen. I actually googled internal bleeding. Sometime I fell asleep and when I woke for the day it was gone. I actually think it was gas and gi upset from some of the anesthesia. They didn't give me as many drugs during the first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819629 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 18:07:31 +0000 mrs bunchy 1819629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: yes- my RE did a blood clotting panel and chromosome testing on me and chromosome testing on DH. Until this point- he already had a semen analysis which was normal, and I was previously on 7 months of clomid (before my 2nd m/c). When I switched to the RE- he did an HSG and I got pregnant that month- queue this 3rd m/c. He is concerned about my heart shaped uterus ... Questioning now if there is a septum that is causing me to miscarry. I have to wait until I heal from d&amp;c before I can do this hysteroscopy to find out for sure. </p> <p>What's your story? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819566 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 17:06:40 +0000 simplyfelicity 1819566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs bunchy: I am so incredibly sorry. It's good to know I am not alone sometimes, but I wish no one had to go through this.<br /> Is your OB or RE doing any testing? My OB said if I have one more they will. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-dc-experiences#post-1819514 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 15:37:56 +0000 mrs bunchy 1819514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: yeah :( heard the heartbeat at 6.5 weeks and went back following week and it wasn't there anymore. That marked m/c #3. Sooo rough! </p>
