Have women had a D and C

Have any women here ever had to undergo a therapeutic D and C? What was the experience like? Were you fully under or did they use twilight sedation for the procedure? Do you remember anything?

I had sedation. I remember wearing a gown only. I was shown to a room with a very scary looking g medical bed with stirrups. There was one nurse and two old doctors. They asked me to lay down first and didnt move my legs into.stirrups until sedation started. I remember being asked to move my bottom down to the end of the table and I felt like I was going to fall off. I felt so exposed. There was a lamp on directed straight at my vagina. I remember the speculum inserted and it hurt and I cried but I think they upped the sedations I cant remember anything else.

I’ve had 3 for miscarriages. The first and third were scheduled and more your typical day surgery routine. Showed up early, spoke with my OBGYN, met with anesthesia and then was brought into the OR. The 3rd was emergent and was a blur for me but I do know all 3 times I was put under before I was positioned on the table. The cramps were bad for the first few hours and quickly tapered off for me.
