Update (m/c ment)

StaceygirlPa · #1 March 21st, 2011, 01:17 PM

I don't know if here is the right place to post this. A lot of you feel like you are family so I wanted to let you know how I am doing and how the surgery went.

First let me say I really love my Ob. The surgery went real well today. My ob was really upset to see me there. I didn't have any complications at all. This d&c was completely different then my last d&c. My ob told me today that no way was he going to spend two hours in there. He said no doctor should spend that long in there poking around. He said that if he was going to have any complications he would pull me out and give me something to help soften my cervix then pull me back in. He is so worried about me getting another infection. He sent me home with a strong antibiotic that I am supposed to take 3 times a day. I am suppoed to take my temp 3 times a day. If my temp goes to 100 he wants me to call. My ob said he got everything out but he didn't do a lot of scraping in case we deceide we want to try again. He wasn't able to do any genetic testing today because he was afaird if he got out he wasn't going to be able to get back in. He is going to do genetic testing on me and Dh. He is also going to run the clotting disorder testing when I gt back in 4 weeks to see him. I am so happy he isn't going to me make go in for repeated blood draws to make sure my HCG is going down. He will check it when I go back in to see him. I wish I would have stuck with him for my first surgery. Even Dh said this time was totally different.

Since the surgery I am feeling better about things. I hope no one takes this the wrong way. I am happy it is finally over with and I can move forard now with whatever we deceide. Dh is leaving it to me if we try again. When I got out of surgery I felt at peace which I haven't felt at peace since I found out on Friday. I did forget to ask him for something for my nerves. I have to call my regular doctor to see about doing Latex allergy test. When I see him I am going to ask for something for my nerves.

Thank you everyone for being there for me during this time.

So happy it went so good.
Sucks you had to do it in the first place but happy you are in a good place right now.
I am glad to hear you are still thinking about maybe trying again. If you need anything at all I am here to talk.

StaceygirlPa · #3 March 21st, 2011, 01:32 PM

Thank you Lindsey. We both want to get the testing done and see what that tells us. After that we try again. I am still on the fence on that one. I don't know if I could handle another loss. This one took so much out of me.

lindsey2000k · #4 March 21st, 2011, 01:37 PM

I understand that. Maybe they will find something simple to give you hope to try again.
I will admit I am scared to death to lose another baby... but I want one so bad I am willing to do it again.
BUT I also just got a couple diagnosis after my last lost to give me hope and maybe answers.
But for about a week after I found out baby had no heartbeat hubby said no more then he changed his mind.

Dh is going to leave it up to me. He said he is ok either way. He loves me for me and he said he married me to be with me. He would love to have a baby but if we can't then he is happy because we have each other. Me on the other hand I feel like something is missing. I am so scared of lossing another baby though. I have some thinking to do. First the testing then we will see from there.

Sounds like your in a better place today....I felt the same way when my d&c was complete as well. Hoping your testing results in a good game plan for the future. Either way, you have a wonderful DH and sounds like your road will always take you both to good places...

Hugs!! I'm glad it went well. I think having the answers from the genetic testing on you and DH will help.

Exactly what Red said to me...

I am sorry you are going through this all again.

I hope you never have to go through that again. *hugs*

I'm glad that everything went well today Stacey but I am so sad to see you having to go through this. I hope that the testing comes back with an easy fix and that you get your Rainbow Baby. I love you Stacey and know that we are here for you no matter where you are in your journey.

pepper73 · #11 March 21st, 2011, 02:46 PM

I'm glad it went well for you today. It sounds like you have a great OB who is really concerned about you as a person and not just a patient (if that makes sense). I hope they are able to give you some answers that will help you decide what road to take. I'm glad you are more at peace too. It's another step in the healing process.

SkyBaby · #12 March 21st, 2011, 03:56 PM

I'm so sorry you had to go through this again. Your OB does sound like a great guy and very understanding. I really hope some day you will get your miracle child. You are so strong for already feeling at peace.

AZsnowflake · #13 March 21st, 2011, 05:25 PM

I'm glad your surgery went well but so sorry it had to happen in the first place

terajet · #14 March 21st, 2011, 06:46 PM

Glad things went well. I felt relieved after my D&C also. The in between period is very hard.

It is extremely sweet that you DH is so supportive. Hope you recover quickly.

Celena · #15 March 21st, 2011, 08:39 PM

I'm so glad to hear you're at peace in your heart sweetie

that's all I had hoped for you that it would come to you sooner than later so that you could move forward in your grief, your healing, your future.

(btw, stop saying please don't get offened because we won't!!!)

Jessica121706 · #16 March 21st, 2011, 08:59 PM

I'm so sorry stacey. i've been poking in here less and less and seem to miss this. I am glad the surgery went ok and I'm praying for you. and ditto what celena said, you are like family to alot of us and i don't think anyone should be offended by your mixed emotions yo have been through so much and I respect you very much. I'll be praying for you.

StaceygirlPa · #17 March 22nd, 2011, 05:52 AM

Thank you ladies. I am so happy I stayed with my Ob this time. I really think knowing that he cares really helped me yesterday. Yesterday's surgery was completely different then the first one. I was so sick after the first one. Yesterday after they released me we went out to lunch because I was so hungry, we stopped to pick up somethings for the farm, saw Dh's mom. By then I was getting tired and starting to hurt so we came home. Dh even said he wishes we would have went back to this ob for the first surgery.

martilynne · #18 March 22nd, 2011, 11:17 AM

I'm so sorry you are going through this again

I know it might sound weird but having a great OB almost makes going through a loss a little easier. I hope that the testing helps you get a sticky bean.

jessjillmama · #19 March 22nd, 2011, 11:24 AM

I am so sorry for your loss.

ohnicole · #20 March 24th, 2011, 07:20 AM

Stacey, I'm sorry about being MIA from JM for a few days, but I am so glad to hear that your surgery went so well. It sounds like you are in a much better place, now. You are such a strong lady- you amaze me!
