Hi everyone, been lurking for a while but about the start trying again so thought I would introduce myself.
Came off the pill in May and conceived 4 months later (first pregnancy). Went for my dating scan at 9 weeks and the baby was only 6w3d and no heartbeat, a few more tests confirmed I had a mmc. We first tried the pills but that didn't work so ended up having a d&c.
After I stopped bleeding from surgery, I had some spotting then finally a very short light period. Like clockwork my second one has come now but it is insanely heavy with very large clots. At any rate I have waited as long as my midwife advised so while I am scared out of my mind that this might happen again I really can't wait to start ttc.

Having kind of weird cycles after a d&c can be normal, so try not to get too worried about it- although it sounds like your midwife is helpful and supportive so that is great.
@lin0442 the midwife ( only one on the island i live on) is also a nurse working next door to me (I am a pharmacist). So it's quite easy to pester her when she comes in to drop off a script
