I would not tell your boss...I chose to tell those it was necessary to.."minor surgury"..will be fine.People will say odd comments and if their are children around or pregnant women..eyes will be on you...pass on that, ty. |

thank you kate. "minor surgery" is very good suggestion, I like that. My colleagues are very nice and understanding, but I really don't want them to know about this. I feel in this matter, you can't expect to get comfort even from best friend unless they had same experience. They don't really understand the sense of loss. I think I will feel better and heal faster without having to deal with those kind/"odd" sympathy when I get back to work. |

Kate, that's a great idea. I ended up telling my boss when I had my D&E, but they knew I was pregnant. That was 3 weeks ago, and today I still had someone asking me about the baby. J- you were smart not to tell. I'm not sure if I will the next time around, |

personal "health issues of a female nature" will be enough imfo, if your boss is male, he will not want to know any more details. And i feel for you, it is very traumatic, the crying is grief & hormones... as for Having To Do an D&C... well, i never had one because it was my choice not to (prefered natural).... though one doctor did try and pressure me to have one until he found out i have no health insurance... Remember it is YOUR choice, and i did have successful pregnancy after m/c no2... My m/c were around 11 weeks and there was no discernable 'tissue', just heavy bleeding and cramping, easing off on about the 4th day to normal period type bleeding, then stopping at about a week, cycle resumed 4 weeks after start of m/c. At 7 weeks i would not think you would be passing tissue... more likely a heavy period type thing.....Dont forget the light at the end of the tunnel... a baby may be just around the next corner... |

you are right, my boss is a young male, I don't think he wants to know details about women's thing either -:). for D&C, I am a bit scared even though I know it is a small surgery, I do prefer the natural way believing that does less harm to the uterus. my last m/c was at 6 weeks, i had heavier cramping and bleeding than this time, after one round of severest cramping, I saw the tissue like thing - the sac I think come out. considering this time is 1 week or so further out, what is my chance of getting everything passed naturally? the cramping eased off yesterday, and i only have period like bleeding now --getting less and less too. |
