I guess I'll start with an intro since it looks like I'll be joining you all soon. My name is Liza. I'm 34 and have a wonderful, energetic 3 yr old. I found out I was pg about 2 weeks ago, which came as a suprise because I had to go on clomid to get pg with my DD because I've always had very irregular periods (I haven't had one since the last week of June). Anyway, I started spotting over the weekend so I called my dr since I didn't have that before. He told me to come in on Monday and see him so he could check it out. It turns out that the embryo never developed (or it's too early but my dr didn't think that was the case). As a precaution, they took blood to check the hormone levels and I go back tomorrow for them to do that again. He told me that if the levels didn't increase that I would need to get a D&C. I've looked online and most of what I find is more of a definition than what to really expect. I hope that some of you can help me with a couple of questions. What exactly should I expect? What type of recovery is involved? Do they numb you or give you some kind of pain killers? (I have 0 tolerance for pain!) How long does it take? How long do you have to wait before you can start TTCing? I guess that was more than a couple questions! I didn't really ask my dr much yesterday probably because I think I was in shock and trying to contain my DD after being at the drs for over 3 hrs!

Thank you for your help and I look forward to getting to know you all!
