With my first D&C I had very little spotting for the first few days and then not a drop of blood for six more weeks. Today I had brown spotting after my workout and a little on my pantyliner. I am guessing this is just some intermittent spotting, but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and how long it took AF to arrive after.

Re: Brown spotting 1.5 weeks after D&C
I just got off the phone from my clinic because it has been 2 weeks since I had the D&C and I am still (intermittently) spotting. According to them, you can have spotting off and on anywhere from 3-6 weeks. Once your hormone levels go down (which, depending on how far along you were, can take a while as they double about every day while you are pregnant) you will begin to ovulate and then have AF approximately 2 weeks later.
I have heard that many women get their first AF within 6 weeks of a D&C.
GL OP, I am so sorry for your loss.
I spotted brown for two solid weeks after my D+E. It began to get a bit old. I noticed it would come out a bit faster after I worked out and my doc told me this would happen. Can't say how long for AF, since I'm waiting now, but I'm showing signs of O. I'll take it.
