I've never had a miscarriage before and I'm not sure what's normal for a period and what's not. I just started My first period since the loss in November, I had a D&C in December and there are a lot of clots but it's not heavy bleeding. Is this normal?. Thanks.

    Mine started with a sputter on Friday after a d&c on 12/22. I thought that would be it, but it came on full speed yesterday. I've had some clots as well. I'm not concerned about it. I'm just thrilled it came back right on my old schedule.

    Both of mine were different.  One was heavy and a lot of clots, the other was very light.  It can vary.  My dr advised that if it was bleeding more than a pad every hour....to come in ASAP.

    I'm not sure if my period came on right after my mc bleeding. It's been a few days over 2 weeks and I haven't stopped bleeding since my mc. It slowed down and came right back.

    Thanks ladies, my miscarriage was nov 14 and the D&C was dec 5. I did bleed until the beginning of jan with my period starting 2 weeks after. Maybe normal with it being so long after the miscarriage. I haven't been to the dr with a follow up yet. Tcann maybe you should go see your dr. They told me after the miscarriage that bleeding should last 4-5 days and it didn't with me so I had to have the D&C.

    I have kind of been lost! I found out my baby had no heart beat when I was 9 weeks. My body did not miscarry on its own so My husband and I went with the medication to cause my body to miscarry. By far one of the worst things I have ever been through. My official day of miscarrage was Nov 30th. I'm wondering now when should I be having a period most of what I have read says 4-6 weeks after miscarrage. I have been spotting now since the 6th of January but no real period. If anyone can give me some input and or experiences that would be a huge help!
