D&c

Hi All,

I had the D&C done on Tuesday and the procedure was scary but I feel so much better since it has been done. I feel like my body has already begun to heal. They say that after the procedure your body finally realizes that it is no longer pregnant and stops producing hormones.

Emotionally I am still a wreck. i am better since the hormones have begun to even out, but I am so scared that the hope and excitment I had is gone forever. This next round I am afraid I will not be so gung-ho! I dread what I will be like with another pregnancy. Every ache or pain will send me into a frenzy! I am concerned that I will be riddled with fear.

I see many of you have had this experience and I have to ask you this...how did you get through it? How did you gain the strength to see through the disappointment and hurt to try again. Did your marriages/relationships suffer? I feel like I am so depleted that I have nothing left for my husband.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
