TTC After a Loss

I hate that everything has changed...

Hi all,
On my second period since the m/c, my partner was full of cold for the crucial week this month so I knew chances of catching on were slim...
Anyways I hate that since the miscarriage my periods have changed so much, I used to be like clock work, I knew how long they'd last (3 days max) what to expect and no pain whatsoever. Now they are painful, so so heavy and last longer than before. It just makes me sad as it reminds me that it's all changed now as that happened. I know I'm only on cycle 2 since the m/c, has anyone experienced this, do they settle back down after a while?

  • Mine have ranged from heavy (for me) to really light but I'm just now getting my third period since may. Mine have been long in-between which really sucks. I had a 48, 40 and this one was 43. Hopefully it will get better as time goes on :)

    RE says the low egg count is likely causing my recurrent pregnancy loss. Less eggs results in more aneuploidy.

  • I've just finished my 2nd cycle since my loss. Before I was a solid 4 days and very predictable. My body has kept to the 28 days but last month I was still 4 days but it was SUPER heavy but this month was only 2 1/2 days and very mild. I'm not sure what to think so I'm kind of chalking it up to my body getting back to normal...Sorry I can't be more helpful
