[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: I don't think anyone who goes to the doctor is a wimp. Sorry if my tone indicated that.

I just don't think it's common to die or have major complications from a miscarriage in early pregnancy. (Unlike  with appendicitis, a heart attack, or a bullet wound. Come on, really guys?)

I get that losing a pregnancy is terrible, even devastating, and I get that sometimes it isn't doing what it needs to do and needs help. But I also wonder if there is a rush to the doctor because people think it's like a knife wound or something.

I read stuff online about it, and so many websites would have had me sitting in the ER, and I think that would have made the whole experience even worse.[/quote]

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.[/quote]
