| I thing OP wants to know that she's the most laid back of all people. I guess "congrats" - you win. |
| I was only a few weeks pregnant when I miscarried - still the OB told me to go to the hospital for checks. I don't think I had a D&C but I do think they want to make sure you have expelled everything or you could wind up with necrotic tissue in your womb. |
| Heard of a D&C? |
|
Op I can't believe you kept calling your poor midwife! Three times?? She must have been so over your drama!
Why did you call her at all? Maybe for some of the same reasons others sought treatment. Duuuuuhhhh... |
| I had four miscarriages before this current pregnancy. It was emotionally devastating to experience each one. I never had to go to the ER, and I know I am very lucky that I didn't have to. Incomplete m/cs, hemorrhaging, and ectopics are real, and they are serious health risks -- sometimes life-threatening. I'm amazed the OP can't take this information in. |
| I imagine most women go to the hospital because they think they need health care services. What a bizarre question. |

OP,
Check out WebMD next time b/f posting: http://www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/guide/pregnancy-miscarriage?page=2 |
| Fast forward- OP actually becomes a parent one day, she will lack the necessary empathy and compassion needed to be a loving parent. Fast forward: Johnny: (Age 5) wahhhhhhhhh!!! OP : Johnny, you fell down? you what? You busted your lip from falling on your toys? Why are you crying? It's just a little cut and blood. Suck it up Johnny. Here is a tissue. We can't leave the beach house to go to the ER!?! We just started paying cards and having fun! Lol |
| Dead fetal matter is incredibly toxic. I wanted the shit out ASAP. I scheduled a d&c no waiting. Was back at work the next day. No beach house for me. Or was that your point? You were able to m/c at a beach house vs a hospital? Nice for you, then. If that's your ideal scenario. Personally, I wouldn't want to bleed shit around other people and play cards. Now that's weird. Sharing bathrooms with other people, eww! |
| I had my first miscarriage when DH was deployed and I was in a new town where I didn't know anyone. There was no urgent care so I drove myself to the ER where I passed out in the bathroom. I was glad that I passed out in the hospital and not alone at home on my own with no one to check up on me! |
| A good lesson for OP (and really the rest of us) - if you ever feel the need to start a sentence with "I don't mean to be a jerk/asshole/shithead/etc. but ..." maybe you should re-think whether or not you should ask this question or whether it needs to be rephrased. You probably are not an insensitive pompous ass, but you certainly sound like one. |
You are either very insensitive or misinformed. I miscarried at 11 weeks and bled so heavily I passed out and went into shock. I had to go to the ER for an emergency D&C. It was a pretty traumatic experience for me. But hey, glad to hear for you it was no big deal. |
| Wow! You ARE a jerk, and very self centered as well. My sister miscarried. She thouhgt she was 12 weeks, but was 15 weeks. She nearly bled to death. She had emergency surgery which saved her life. This has happened to others I know, also. When you see that much blood, go to the hospital and do not drive yourself! |
|
OP, as someone who has had a miscarriage yourself, I think you should just have compassion for someone else going through that experience, rather than questioning them as to why they handled the situation differently than you did.

OP - are you for real? Or just some bored teenager sitting around trying to figure something out to post.
Your post is so insensitive that it's hard to believe you had a m/c b/c you trivialize it so much. |
