    @runnerd: We were in a similar situation and were given pills to start the miscarriage.

    hmm follow-up to this post... (ps i'm so tired of posting in the miscarriage section, but ya'll ladies are wealth of knowledge).

    I had my D&C Friday. Obviously I know some light bleeding and spotting is normal following. Well I had light bleeding Fri-Sun. And today - gosh today. I have had some bad cramps and been passing weird clots/tissue about 3 times. The bleeding was fairly heavy for about 2-3 hours.. finally calmed down, but was bad enough I went home from work cause I couldn't deal with having that go on there.

    Should I be concerned?? Not many of you say you even had bleeding afterward... the doctor reported to my husband that everything went well with the procedure, so I dunno.. @artbee: you seem to be the only one who had any trouble with d&c...

    @runnerd: I would call the doctor if you're worried. Did they tell you when to be concerned, like if you fill a certain number of pads in an hour? I don't remember what they told me, it was awhile ago. Did you have an ultrasound during the d&c to know for sure that they got everything out? Hope you're doing better!

    @runnerd: I'm hoping you're feeling better! I just saw this post and wanted to comment. If you're feeling feverish, make sure you go right in. I had a D&C in late Nov and 3 days later started running a fever with my bad cramping. Turns out they did not get all the tissue and I had gotten an infection. Another D&C and a week in the hospital later for IV antibiotics and it was finally over. My fever was very high, very quickly. Just be concious of your body and if you are concerned about anything be sure to call the doctor.

    D&C.

    Eta: I can't remember if I had heavy bleeding. I just remember being violently sick the day of.
