Hi mums,
Such a sad place for my first post... :(
My mc started on Friday (today being Sunday), at almost 7 weeks. Passed empty gestational sack on Saturday evening (apparently it was a blight egg), doc has been monitoring the whole evolution of the mc, advised on letting it happen naturally. Received misoprostol to help pass the womb lining as well, currently bleeding but not too heavily.
Now, the thing is, I'm supposed to leave for Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Vietnam and Cambodia) on Wednesday, with DH, DD (2yo) and some friends. The holiday should last 19 days. Tickets are non refundable and we cannot change the dates.
Doc advises against travel but admits that thus far everything has gone easier and better than expected. However, even in these cases, hemorrhage and/or infection can occur. She says that the destination worries her as well, as we will be traveling extensively and at times might be far away from proper medical care (the Mekong delta).
What do you lovely ladies think? I'm really torn here. Been planning and expecting this vacation for a long time, everyone is counting on me (I'm one of the organizers), would be super sad to stay behind but on the other hand, I'm really fragile (emotionally) right now, and also fear the possible outcomes of pushing my body too far by making this long journey. There's also my DD to think of, should something happen.
Would really really love to hear your opinions and/or experiences!
Thank you!
Xoxo
