TTC After a Loss

Tired of Waiting for AF

Hi Ladies, I'm feeling so tired of waiting for AF to show herself! I keep convincing myself i'm having PMS, but no AF.  I'm just starting to feel really angry with my body.  And I know it's not even been that long, but I'm so excited to start trying again.  How long did you all wait for your first AF?

Re: Tired of Waiting for AF

  • I'm so sorry about your loss.

    AF showed up for me about 4 weeks after my natural m/c.  I know everyone is different with this, though.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss. 

    My first AF was 21 days after my loss, I had a d&c though. Not sure if that makes a difference. My 2nd cycle was also 21 days. This past cycle (she's visiting now ugh) was 39 days. I think it varies a lot.

  • Are you ladies counting from the day you stopped bleeding entirely or from the last day you passed any tissue?

    My m/c "wrapped up" pretty quickly - I think I only spotted a couple of days after the actual m/c.  I think AF arrived about 28 days after the spotting ended for me.

  • Mine was about 8 weeks from my D&C.  It was torture, but I've always had longer cycles.  I hope yours shows her ugly face sooner!

  • I'm so sorry. I feel like I'm in the same boat as you - I keep feeling major pms symptoms, I'm SO hormonal, and feel completely off track. I hate it. It's been four weeks and no sign of any AF. UGH.

    Good luck to you. I hope you feel better soon.

  • I'm sorry for your loss.  I had an induced delivery, but mine was 6 weeks after the date of the delivery.  How far out are you now?
  • I am sorry for your loss.  AF showed up 4 weeks after my D&C. From the others on this post you can see that it will vary quite a bit from person to person.  And the waiting can really take a toll.  I hope she pays a visit to you very soon! 
  • AF showed up 5 weeks post d&c for me, I am sorry for your loss.  I hope it happens soon for you!

  • I'm 30 days since I passed the last of the tissue, but didn't stop bleeding until April 15th, so it's been 23 days since everything stopped entirely.

     

    Thank you all for your support & love! It's nice to have someone to go through this with!
