OK! just curious if this is normal or not!
my AF only lasted 2 days and was light - its usually heavy and clotty and lasting a few more days!!!

and why do i keep on getting more blue veins on my breasts? i used those as an pregnancy indicator last time! but i took 2 tests before i got my AF and it was BFN!

do you think this is just normal?

thanks!!!!

That does sound like a strange cycle for you. Have you taken another test. Depending on how light or heavy it could have been some serious implantation.... Hard to say. I would call the dr or take another test. I hope you get your bfp very soon.

The first AF after a m/c is not expected to be "normal". My normal cycles are usually 2-3 days of consistent flow followed by one day of spotting. My first AF after my first m/c was LONG and CRAMPY and full of clots. My first AF after my second m/c was only 1 day long, no clots, and all "old" blood.

During a miscarriage the lining completely sheds so your body might just be building it back up so is shedding less with each cycle until there is a "normal" lining sustained.

It took two cycles after my first natural, 5 cycles after my 2nd loss (a D/E) I hope your cycles are back to normal and you can catch that eggie! Good Luck!

I just finished my first AF after my MC, and it was also very light...so I would say it's normal...I never took a PG test, but with the amount of bleeding that I had, even though it was light, I am pretty sure I could not be preggers.
