Thinking of you, Liz!
Thanks Jo - and everyone for thinking of us and supporting us during this VERY trying time. I am home, resting comfortably. I don't feel too bad - like a bad period - some cramps and the bleeding really isn't bad at all - hardly any as a matter of fact.
I didn't have a D&C - it was actually a D&E - whatever D stands for and evacuation - basically she sucked everything out with suction so there shouldn't be too much to bleed out. I did have a bit of a temp (99.something) and my BP was too low (80/50something at one point) but turns out I was just dehydrated - so 2 bags of fluids and a bit of pain meds later we were good to go.
Now that the physical part is taken care of we can work on the emotional - I know this happened for a reason, if the baby had kept growing there would have been something horrifically wrong - so now we shall mourn and start trying again in probably 2 months
*hugs* and thanks again for you texts, well wishes, love and prayers
Love,
Liz & Chris too

Liz my thoughts and prayers are with you and Chris. Happy to hear the D&E was not too bad for you and you can move to the next phase of recovery. Just remember we are all here for you if you need us. (((((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))))))

you're right, things like this do happen for a reason, although it suckssss. There would have more than likely been some horrible disability with the baby, unfortunately miscarriages are our bodies way of protecting ourselves. start trying as soon as you can!!
