I know its different for everyone...but when was your first AF after your m/c or d&c?

I miscarried last tuesday ( ) and was done bleeding completely by friday. Nothing Saturday then I started bleeding Sunday full on like AF. It is on the tail end of it. Could this have been AF or just a weird bleeding from the d&c and m/c?

Just a quick question to see when AF came for you. Was your first cycle regular or irregular?

I am anxious to start TTC as soon as I can...but I am even more nervous this time!

After my D&C I had bleeding off and on for a week. I know some people have it off and on for a few weeks. I don't think it was AF because you wouldn't have time to O. Usually when your levels get back to zero you O and then get AF.

after both d&cs, i bled on and off heavy and light for two weeks. it would stop and start again. I had my first AF seven weeks after both procedures. I just had a natural m/c and the bleeding was heavy for three weeks. We'll see when AF comes!

Hugs! I know how awful the waiting game is! Everyone is different, but the norm is 4-8 weeks for the first AF.

I have had a natural m/c and a D&C. With the natural m/c it was just like a normal AF but with more clotting and obviously alot more traumatic! I literally only had some spotting after my D&C and then didn't have any bleeding until AF arrived 33 days later so my cycle pretty much returned to normal. I did have what can only be described as contractions 3 days after the procedure. They lasted about 6 hours but I didn't have any bleeding with the pain. The first 2 AF's after my D&C were quite heavy and very painful with lots of clotting during the 2nd one. I feel like my body had a big clean out and I got my BFP the next cycle.

It took 11.5 weeks for my AF to return,my first cycle was a little weird(kept getting positive OPK's)then my second cycle is normal.My first period after my d&c was horrible,heavy and long.

My first AF after my natural m/c came 34 days after I had the m/c and I got pregnant that cycle and had a healthy baby girl. I had a D&C on 8/28 and had bleeding for a week straight then it stopped for about 4 days and came again for another 3 days (so 2 weeks of bleeding total).... I was expecting my AF to show up around 10/1... but I still show HCG in my bloodwork and I don't think you can "O" with HCG still in your blood.... Are you having to go in weekly for bloodwork?

I'm so sorry for your loss. *hugs* I had my first AF around 5 weeks after my m/c. I didn't have a d&c tho.

thanks ladies i didnt really think it could be AF...but no harm in hoping right? lol I just hate that I lost that little baby...I wanted to get pregnant so bad and not only to we have that let down of no longer havign that little bean, but we also horribly get thrown back into the TTC zone which is not fun! I wish i could just NTNP...but I know so much now!
