When Does The Pregnancy Tendencies Go Away After Going Through D&C?

I had a D&C on Friday. I had a small amount of bleeding following the procedure, 3 hours after but nothing else. I have not had any pain and am concerned that this is not 'normal'. I also still very much 'pregnant' my breasts are still very large and tender, my stomach still has the pregnancy shape, my waistline being very round. I am also very tired and emotional. When will I start to feel 'not pegnant'? Also when will I be able to resume sexual intercourse with my husband?

As you had done through the procedure of Dilatation and curettage, So it takes a time for your body to adapt that now you are not pregnant.
Within 15-20 days your uterus will get its shape normally back.
and most importantly if you want to plan a baby then wait for atleast 4-5 months, So uterus wall become favourable for impalntation of fetus.
