But how long does preggo brain last after??? I thought I posted earlier on here...DUH!

Right away they took me away from DH...a big pregnant lady came out to get me for my surgery. I cried for two hours after that. Three really nice nurses took care of me for that whole time. I was just rellay sad they were taking my baby and really scared of the whole thing.

I am TERRIBLE with IVs...and was terrible today...but asked the nurse who got it in if I can have her name and number and call her when I *DO* go into labor one day.

They gave me a LOT of anxiety meds, probably because of all the crying and the fact that I have panic disorder. By the time they took me back and DH left I didn't cry and I was looking around the operating room thinking it looked like a coat closet and wondering what would happen if someone farted in there...the next thing I knew I woke up! I couldn't fall back asleep so they let me go home fast. They put a tube down my throat while I was sleeping so my throat hurts. But they gave me stuff for nausea since I don't handle it well. So far, so good.

They said I can need 3-5 days off. So I am not going back to work on Monday. We'll see how I feel for Tuesday.

Im' sad...but looking forward to TTC #4 after the new year. And losing weight. I wore my skinny jeans to surgery. I cried, but soon I'll be happy. DH says I can go out and get some new clothes. This always helps =)

And he went out and got me chocolate ice cream =) I have a great DH. One day he will be a great dad.

Welcome here, though I dont remember if I did that already either!

Sounds like the physical part of the d&c was ok, I can relate to the mental state you were in. There is nothing worse than being wheelded away and waking up so empty. Im so sorry you had to experience that, truly Iam.

Ice cream and clothes are a nice temporary fix, what a wonderful dh you have. I pray your children give you some comfort in the next coming days, I know mine did.

Heres to a new year with wonderful things coming your way, including a BFP.

I am very sorry for your loss....I remember waking up from my D&C shivering uncontrollably and crying (the nurses didn't even notice b/c they were gossiping which irked me at the time) and I remember feeling so terribly alone and empty and thinking that it was the lowest moment of my life to that point.

Do take it easy for a few days (or longer if you need to)...it'll help you heal and the bleeding won't be as bad if you stay off your feet for a few days. We're all here for you. HUGS

I'm glad it's over... it's not fun at all! Your DH does sound amazing & I am so happy he is making you feel a little better.

HUGS. I'm glad that physically the D&C went by OK. Take your time to emotionally care for yourself. The next few weeks can sometimes be an emotional roller coaster as your body recovers. I'm very glad DH is there to help out. We're here too whenever you need us! HUGS!

Glad to hear things went smoothly... hope your recovery is quick! Don't overdo it and take your doctor's advice about staying home from work. It is for not only your physical health but your emotional health too.

Pampering helps... Good hubby you got there!

I can relate to the iv thing. I'm the same way about those situations, and would have taken anti anxiety meds too. It sounds like the d&c went ok. Your husband sounds very supportive, and amazing. I hope you recover quickly.

Glad to see you back hun! Hope your recovery goes smooth!~ Can't wait to see us TTC again! Did they give you a time frame on when you can start TTC? Maybe we'll end up in the same DDC again!
