My friend m/c (miscarried) at 8 wk pg. She had D&C & is nervous about 3 WKS FOLLOW UP APPT. What they do / say

My best friend had a missed miscarriage. We moved her into our house to keep her company for now. She will be going to the follow up appt next week, which is 3 wks post the D %26amp; C. She is just nervous about what the follow up appt is all about. THANKS

The follow-up is just to make sure that she is feeling ok. I was meant to have a follo-up after my d%26amp;c but I never went. I felt good and had no reason to go. I was pregnant 4 months later anyway.
Reply:I misscarried at 11 wks and had a d%26amp;c and then went for an appt about 2 weeks afterwards. Its basically the same kind of check up like your 6 wk after you give birth. They ask you if their is any pain anywhere or if you have any questions. They just want to make sure your body is getting back to normal. They may or may not do a vaginal check(depends on the doctor) but other than that its a relatively quick appt.
Reply:I had the same happen as the lady above. I miscarried at 12 weeks and had dandc and they just make sure everythings ok and see if you have pain, tell her that everything will be fine.
