1st period after Loss

in TTC After a Loss
Hi all..it has been 4 weeks since my loss. I know the first period can take 4-6 weeks but I am wondering. .did you all feel symptoms before your first periods or did it come without warning?
I always felt sore breasts and bloating but mot really feeling any of that. This would help me to see if I should be on the look out or if it will appear. Thanks!

    I don't know what stage your loss occurred, but I went through labor and delivery, and my body seemed to get back to a normal cycle pretty quickly. I "bled" very lightly for about two weeks, and my period started about 3 weeks after that stopped. So it was about 5 weeks after my loss that my first period came. There wasn't much warning for me--just feeling crampy and spotting. 

    Everyone's different, so don't worry about it. And if it doesn't come or if you're still worried about it, I'm sure you're doctor would be willing to talk about it.

    I don't usually have any period warning signs, it just likes to appear.
    My period occurred exactly one month after I started to miscarry.
    Good luck

    ........it's actually 6-8 weeks to get back your period.

    It's not "one size fits all." Every body is different. It's possible for an AF to return 4 weeks after a loss.

    I had my period after 3 weeks from stopped bleeding after D&C but we're all different I guess.

    I'm so so sorry for your loss... At least we can all relate to the pain x
