Poor Pink! I'm really sorry for you, and you're in my thoughts. *huggles*

Saturday, the spotting started, then just about 24 hours later on the dot, the bleeding started. I honestly had no idea what I was getting myself into when I thought I could do this miscarriage naturally. It was, literally, the worst experience psychologically and physiologically (9 or 10 on a scale of 1-10) I've ever been through. We ended up staying the night at the Emergency Room, had to leave at 6:30 AM, then return by 10:00 AM for my procedure.

When the doctor arrived for the procedure, she wanted to do an ultrasound to make sure there was still something there to remove. There was still a small amount left. The baby had passed at some point Sunday night, but we don't know when. It would have been nice to know the moment. I digress. She said it could potentially be 2 more weeks of waiting before the rest past and I knew I just couldn't handle that waiting or the physical pain from it. So we went ahead with the procedure.

I got to come home yesterday, but I'm still recovering today and probably will be for the next few days. I'm taking Percocet (Oxycodone) right now, which has me a bit loopy, but I'm lucid enough right now I thought I'd update everyone.

This is my final piece of advice...my 2 cents worth. If you ever experience miscarriage, make it YOUR choice on whether you go through it naturally or by procedure. Educate yourself. Don't think people are exaggerating when you read about it being like labor pains or so painful they can't bear it. From my experience, I'll never do it naturally again if I have the choice. If you feel ok with doing it naturally, by all means, do it. Just remember how painful it is mentally and physically.

It's all over now. The healing can begin emotionally and physically. I appreciate all of your prayers and thoughts and know that you will continue to keep Nick and I in your prayers.

Oh my god Pink I feel so sorry for you. I've only seen one family go through a miscarriage since I've been old enough to understand them and the whole experience was just devastating for them. I'm really lost for words here and all I can do is hope and wish that you recover emotionally as quickly as you can. I don't know what else I can do in this sort of situation except send you tons of love and support.
