With my 5-week miscarriage, my periods resumed normally, counting the first day of the m/c as CD1. When my son was born I had my periods back after about 6 weeks.

I got AF four weeks after my loss. My OB said some women's cycles get right back to normal and for others it can take months.

After D&C with 1st loss it took an annoying 47 days...after natural m/c with 2nd loss it took about 28 days.

I know waiting for AF to return is awful...i hope you don't have to wait long!

It has varied by loss for me. Some returned within 4 weeks and the longest was 8+ weeks and I had to have medicine to bring AF on. I hope yours returns normally.
