[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When someone I know had an abortion, it definitely was major surgery. She needed a full week off from work afterwards.

It really depends on the situation, but I doubt too many people feel just fine afterwards.

Abortion is not a “normal” thing.[/quote]

A full week off after a D&C? Or after a D&E?

I've had multiple D&Cs due to endometrial polyps, uterine infection, and other uterine issues. While my D&Cs were not related to pregnancy, it's the same surgical procedure as a D&C in early pregnancy. I was fine within 2-8  hours. To be fair, I had no emotional recovery since my D&Cs were not related to pregnancy.

I also had a D&E in mid-second trimester of pregnancy after my baby died in utero and I developed an infection. That was a slightly more involved procedure because my cervix had to be more dilated in order to extract my baby who was almost as large as a can of soda. Even then, I was physically okay within 24 hours. The emotional recovery is of course much more prolonged in that situation. [/quote]
