TTC After a Loss

New Girl with an Intro and a Hello!

Hello ladies-I am so looking forward to this board!  I am 5w post d&c, I was 12w1d when I m/c and I really hope AF will return this week, then we can start ttc again.  I am kind of scared though, I've heard from other posters that the first AF can be pretty bad-was it like that for you?

  • Hi and welcome!  Mine was very heavy and lots of clots, but it made me happy (as happy as one can be) to see that my body was cleaning itself out and getting back on track.  I know that it does vary between women. 

    I hope AF shows up soon!!!

  • So sorry for your loss and welcome to the board.  I had a D&C about 9 weeks ago and I got my first AF about 4.5 weeks later.  It was VERY heavy and long.  Got my second AF today and realized that I've now got a LPD.  So the D&C definitely messed with my body (sorry to scare you).  Hopefully your body will get back on track quickly.  Good luck!

  • Hello and welcome.  Sorry to hear of your loss.  I had natural m/c's so I'm not sure if my experiences will be the same as yours but I always had a very easy time getting back on track with AF after each one.  I hope you have the same experience so that you can get back to TTC.

    I wanted to say your dog is super cute!  I love looking at other people's fur babies.  They always make me smile!

    Welcome to the club we never wanted to be a part of, but are so grateful to have!

    I had a natural m/c and AF came 5 weeks afterwards and it was scary. I had been warned that it would be worse than usual, but still kinda freaked at one point because of the volume and clots and called the doctor. I agree with pp- I was so happy to get AF (even though the heavy bleeding was emotional for me because it reminded me of my m/c). Welcome and GL!

  • Welcome, I'm sorry for your loss and I want to say my first AF after m/c was pretty normal but again, I had a natural m/c.
  • Welcome! I got my first AF almost 5 weeks after my natural m/c. It really wasn't that bad at all. I had a few small clots but my bleeding was pretty light. Hopefully urs won't be too bad either.

    My first AF was NOT fun.  Lots of clots, heaving cramps etc.  The others where better though.  I had a secondary D&C to remove placenta and AF came 3 weeks later.  GL!
  • (((hugs))) I am so very sorry for your loss. I'm glad you found us though, this is a great place to give and get support.

    I had a natural m/c but my first af really wasn't that bad. I know it's different for everyone though.

    BTW your beagle is adorable! I have a beagle also, her name is Cali Smile

  • I'm very sorry for your loss. Welcome to the board. The ladies here are great. 

    My first AF wasn't that bad but my 2nd one was. I had cramps the whole week and it was very heavy the whole time.  

  • Welcome!  I am sorry for your loss.  This board and the ladies have been my lifesaver.  Don't know what I would do without them.  I don't have any advice because my m/c was natural and my AF was very light and only three days.  But I wanted to say welcome, but sorry too.  ((hugs))
  • Welcome and I'm sorry for your loss. My first AF was definitely worse but not horribly so. Now it's just a matter of things getting back to normal.
