I had a D&C apropos of a blighted ovum -- a 'missed miscarriage' -- and it involved:
-- general anaesthetic
-- an overnight stay in the hospital
-- generous amounts of painkillers
I was not very far along at all. The overnight stay wasn't necessary, but it was nice to be, well, drugged and able to relax with other people bringing me food. The room ('semi-private') had an easy chair that reclined enough for my husband to sleep in, too; his staying overnight wasn't a problem.
From the looks of the posts on abortions, abortion clinics don't normally offer general anaesthetic, and certianly not overnight stays, and I'm not clear on the painkiller issue.
??
I'm in Canada, if that makes any difference.
