I'm sure it's a good thread for even the male gender since having a baby involved both genders!

In regards to your questions.

1. D&C done after miscarriage is common, but you have to understand that there are many types of miscarriages. Those incomplete miscarriages required D&C to be done because there's still parts of the fetus inside. When your doctor says it came out fully, I believe he meant you had a "complete" miscarriage meaning there's no need of a D&C. That's actually a good thing because as mentioned above, there's plenty of complications after D&C. So the conclusion is, D&C after miscarriages depends on types of miscarriage, and in your case, you had a complete miscarriage and you DO NOT NEED D&C

2. There are many reasons for having miscarriages. Please discuss with your doctor to rule out the different possible causes as your doctor will investigate and try to treat the treatable causes. Expert opinion lies in the expert, which is your specialist. If you're looking for more info, you can always find people who'll help you out in this thread

ps: Cervical incompetence, syphilis, abnormal uterus etc are a few common causes

A good enough explanation here. Whatever it is, you have to confirm with your doctor which exact medication he'll be giving you and let him explain what it is for. If he doesnt, remember to ask!

Regarding your first paragraph on D&C causing better fertility rate, hmmm.. I wont agree with that simply because it's not needed in your case!

Hehe.. worth it in the end, cause you're bring life to this earth, and only women can, it's a privilege!

They look like worms, dont they? Oh.. that's only under the microscope. But heck, why compare the future beings to worms? Not right at all!

Wow, you're describing labour pains! Something that people never were able to describe! will keep in my the stomachache and toilet part! But I believe it's much much worst!

All your pain points are absolutely right! Experienced huh? hahahaha

Figured that out.. was talking about your "pocket pain" husband suffers!

Hmmm.. watching them good enough to describe? How can...unless you feel it only can describe! Ppl feel it also cant describe! just say = TOO PAIN!

So, this is sharing of experience? Thanks then...

But I thought the shoulders just slide out quickly?

Yup, you're absolutely right! They skull undergo a process called MOULDING which eases the delivery by adapting the the birth canal!

Ooo.. you had a BREECH delivery? Very cool.. didnt they try to turn the baby while she's still inside?

So how many children do you have? Interesting experience you're sharing with us!

First and foremost, the "BudakJahat" nick sounds very misleading, LOL!

Anyway, I actually thought they should have discovered you had a breech much earlier based on USG and should have planned your delivery well. In the end, it still came out so not a problem la!

Congratulations! Good to hear you're expecting your child this saturday! Do tell us more stories k?

Btw, which hosp do you go to? Private? Government? KL?

Woops, I surely got that wrong!

Anyway, it's true what they said. Babies tend to move towards the end of pregnancy, and usually after 37 weeks if they're still stuck there, then they'll attempt to turn the guy/girl around. Anyway, yours came early so no choice. Surprise they didnt op for C-section! Any reasons?

Throughout the whole pregnancy... we're all waiting for the head to come out first. Even in the first stage of labour, it's all about the head coming out.

True that the shoulder MIGHT be difficult, but most of the time, once the head is out, all is good!

Fuyo, braxton-hicks contraction! Not bad.. complicated words coming out. Maybe we should get aerikh to explain!

Wow, so did your doctor teach you that? Not bad... did it really hurt? Can describe it in comparison to your true labour pains?

What's that suppose to mean? 2 placenta? One part stuck? OR 2 seperate occasion? Human? Dog? Cat?

Faulty kit, you can take it back to the pharmacy and demand for a new one. OR, just buy a new one. It's pregnancy, you dont want to be in doubt because of a faulty kit!

That's probably cause the baby is alive and the placenta is not, so that's why the doctor decided it that way!

But then again, snap the cord and you'll give them a big headache.. so well done!

OOoo... dont know man. Just go to any hosp and they'll have their specialist there?

One of the greatest feeling is to see life being born into the world. The whole delivery thing is really touching for those who havent seen it before..

Oh well, great start.. means you got through that posting!

How many babies did you deliver during your time there? btw, u working in a busy hospital where the labour rooms are always full? lol... then surely lots of babies were delivered by u!

Hey great experienced you've gain over there... thinking about specializing in OnG?

Hey nice sharing Glad everything went smooth in the end. How's our little baby doing?

Well, they had to make you pee because the bladder will get in the way of the delivery if it's not empty. Like an obstruction. Anyway, your pain should be gone by now. Probably the wound didnt heal that well.. speak to your gynae about it, and see what he/she says. It really shouldnt persist

Wow, great that your wife managed 3 vaginal deliries after the first caeserean.. usually the scar would be the weak point, and 2 normal births are advocated only. Wish you well

Wow, no scars on your tummy is goood! how much do those slimming sets cost?

Btw, so far 1 child?
