So I went for my pre-op for my d&c on Thursday and he wanted to do one more ultrasound to double check it's a blighted ovum...and it's a molar pregnancy. My uterus looked like a ball pit  it was covered in those little lumps. This is such worse news. We wanted to ttc right away but now we can't for a year and ugh I just thought I would have the d&c and this would all be over but I guess not.

honey, i'm so sorry, you should get in touch with LisaG on this board, She had a molar earlier this year and will totally know what you are going thru. It's not fair, losing the baby is hard enough. I'm so sorry that you have to go thru this.

I am so sorry this is happening to you. I agree, contacting Lisa would be a very good idea. She is a really lovely girl, you'll like her. Shes had such a lot to deal with and has still taken the time to support us all at the same time. I pray that you have no more complications, and the Drs are able to resolve this quickly! Im so sorry again, I wish I could help. ~Hugs~

Oh wow, thanks so much everyone. All the support is really overwhelming and definitely means very much. I'll probably be checking in periodically here.
I have a d&c tomorrow still, I have to get to the hospital at 6 am. I am considered higher risk because this is a molar pregnancy and the doctor mentioned I could lose a lot of blood so they're going to be proactive and hook up two IVs in case I need a transfusion. He said if everything goes well, I should be able to leave within a few hours of surgery, but he also might want to keep me overnight.
The dr didn't really discuss anything other than that, but on my instructions that I gave to the pre-op at the hospital from him, he wrote something about methotrexate, so idk if that will be given after or maybe during the surgery. I looked it up and it's a fairly common drug given for molar pregnancies, and a mild form of chemotherapy.
He also said my uterus was only about 6 weeks size so I'm hoping that means that it won't be too severe, though this is a complete molar pregnancy which has a higher risk (20% vs 5% to a partial molar) of spreading.
I'm getting more anxious about the surgery the closer it gets, mostly because I've always had anxiety about situations like this(I hate going to the dentist, etc), and I've never had any kind of procedure before. I also am a bit upset that none of my family is around. The closest relative I have is my father, who is 600 miles away. The rest of my family is 2,000+ miles away. I have my boyfriend here, but things have been kind of rocky between us, especially after we found out we lost this pregnancy.
Anyway, thanks so much for all the kind words. I will try to get back and update sometime this weekend.
