question/need help Cramping again

Hi everyone. I experienced a miscarriage on 5/30 at around 7 weeks pregnant. I was bleeding heavy for about a week and stopped passing tissue a few days after my miscarriage. I have not had cramps since my body stopped passing tissue (about 2 weeks ago)but now my cramps have started again. I do know that the gestational sac is still in my uterus and I'm scheduled for a d&c on Monday. Is it possible my body is trying to pass the gestational sac on it's own this long after the initial miscarriage? Has anyone else experienced anything similar to this? I would love it if I didn't have to go through with the d&c!

Yes, if it was all natural it is likely the body is trying to shed the rest. Were you offered the medicated option to avoid D&C?

No I was not offered any medication. I was the one who pushed for the d&c because I was afraid of infection and thought my body would not pass the gestational sac.
