So the doctor had warned me that my first AF after the m/c would be pretty heavy. So far it's not any worse than my normal AF has been. Today is pretty heavy, but that's to be expected. I'm on day 3 (used to be day 2 for me , but since I've had Isabelle things got a bit messed up and AF is much longer). Didn't even have any cramps and it was pretty light the first 2 days. Anyone else experience that?? I don't get why it would be heavier than normal. I guess maybe if you have to wait for AF for a while the lining gets too thick.

Glad it's not as bad as the Dr. thought! Mine wasn't really heavier either, my cramps were a lot worse but the bleeding was normal.

It's nice that it's not as bad as expected. I expected mine to be worse than usual also but so far it's normal.

I expected mine to be alot worse too and it was a bit heavier but nothing crazy...i did have some wicked cramps though!

Yeah, it seems to be pretty normal to have worse cramps, but at least the bleeding isn't too bad. It's a cruel thing that we have to go through that after losing a baby, but I guess it's just natures way of resetting our bodies.

I am so glad it wasn't bad for you. I hope it ends soon for you.

My first few cycles after my m/c were a lot heavier than before. I would also get achy legs before AF started and I never had that before. I think the hormones in our bodies are just out of whack for a while.

I just got my 1st AF since my m/c and the 1st 2 days were light and then it got heavy. The first 2 days I was excited that it was so light but I guess I jinxed myself. My periods have been heavy my whole life so I guess this months AF is normal for me
