I had a natural miscarriage Nov 5, so I'm anxious about AF now. Should I expect a normal one, heavy, light, clots, cramps, nothin', what? Yesterday and today I've spotted, but no red bleeding yet. A couple small clots. Anyone want to share their experiences? TIA!
It really varries. Mine was a bit 'bigger' than usual... more blood, slightly stronger cramping but nothing I would have really noticed under other circumstances.
The big thing for me was that it took a full 8 weeks to get AF. Others start right at 4 weeks... most seem to be between 4-6 weeks.
After each of my 3 mc's my 1st and 2nd AF were heavier and longer. Cramps were the same as usual but the bleeding was quite a bit more and lasted up to 9 days when my usual is 5. I always got mine in the 4th week after but it can take up to 8 weeks. My OB always says that if it is not here after 8 weeks to call him.
