We found out we have a missed miscarriage last week. I should now be 9 weeks 2 days but the baby died a couple of weeks ago.
I’m booked in for an ERPC on Tuesday. I’m now having second thoughts - I’m worried that I won’t come to terms with it/believe it has happened if I’m not conscious when I lose the baby.
Nothing is happening naturally. I have been here before and it took weeks naturally last time. It was a terrible experience, and I found it very painful and traumatic, but at least I ‘know’ it happened.
In contrast, a previous D&C (as it was called then) left me feeling very disorientated.
So I’m considering Medical Management. My partner thinks I am a bit crazy to consider it. He is also worried as he has to travel for work this week (really no choice at all and he feels awful about it) so I will be alone. I am worried about it continuing for days and not being able to cope.
Any advice on choosing between the two? I feel totally incapable of making a decision at the moment. I have to go to the EPU tomorrow for blood tests so I know I can ask them, but your honest views would be appreciated, thank you.
