Pregnancy symptoms after miscarrage

Stuuuaaart

Two weeks ago we discoverd there was no heartbeat and one week ago I had a d&c. I still have food aversions and nausea just as I did when I was pregnant. Is it normal to continue to have some lingering symptoms after a d&c and miscarrage?

I would imagine that you could still have symptoms as your hcg levels decrease, since you still have the hormones in your system.

It is normal and depends on where your betas were at when you had your D&C and how fast are they dropping. Is your doctor having you do follow-up beta blood tests to track your fall?

Some women also find it comforting to take a cheapie $-store HPT every few days to watch the line fade. It definitely helped me realize my lingering symptoms were not all in my head, KWIM?

I haven't been told that they will do any follow up blood work but I don't see my doctor for a follow up for another week. I also feel very hormonal, like Supersized PMS (lol). I'm sure it's all related. I've heard it takes a few weeks for all the pregancy hormones go away.
