D&C Question

Gemini2323 · #1 March 9th, 2009, 03:11 PM

I'm finding the bleeding very weird...like today I didn't bleed at all then I go to the bathroom before I leave work and I'm bleeding...it's annoying wearing a pad then you don't bleed most of the time then all of a sudden it starts again so you have to! How long will this last? My D&C was March 3rd...

D&C bleeding can be really odd...mine was similar (bleeding off and on) getting progressively lighter but went on for 10 days total. It made me also remember how much I hate pads....

I had next to none after mine, but there was spotting for about a week, some days nothing and some days a little, I imagine each person is different though.

that sounds like how it was after my D&C. I'd bleed one day, no bleeding, than spotting, no bleeding, ect. It really was quite annoying. And unfortunately for me it continued like that for 12 days.

It's different for everyone. I bled a little immediatly after my D&C. The spotting lasted for 6 days, then I had two days of nothing but yellow discharge. Then the spotting started again and continued for 7 more days. After that, it was 12 days before AF started...a total of 24 days post D&C.

I bled for about 3 days, like a period then it stopped. I had some brown cm right after though for another few days.

I was having it off and on for over two weeks when my dr put me on provera to stop the bleeding and get ready to start my period

I had it off and on for a while, but can't remember exactly how long. It was very annoying though!!

I barely bled after mine either...just a little bit of spotting, enough that I had to wear a pad but that's about it. About 6 days after I had mine though I passed a HUGE (TMI) clot and kind of bled a bit that day, but that was about it. I'm now about 20 days after my procedure and have some brown-ish cm that I'm REALLY hoping will lead to AF. I've never wanted her to visit me so badly before!

i found that the more active i was, the more i bled. when i took it easy, the bleeding was less. i bled for a total of 2 weeks after my d&c - but it was more like spotting the second week. g/L

It is frustrating! After my D&E I didn't bleed AT ALL right afterwards.Then like 5 days latter I bled a little. Then it went away for another 3 days, and I bled some more. After that it was done, but I thought it was really weird!

I had a natural miscarriage (well meds induced) and had similar spotting. One day it was totally gone, the next day it was back. That went on for about 5 days and then it stopped completely 1 week later.

I bled for about 11 to 12 days after my d&c. I was used to bleeding by that point, I bled the most of the time i was pregnant and bled for the 2 weeks between finding no heartbeat and my d&c. I was soo happy when it stopped though. After the d&c it was mostly spotting.
