    Confused Heavy 1st AF after mc

    I'm on day 5 of my first post-miscarriage AF.

    So far i've had light, medium, and super heavy flow last 3 days in a row... From 12-6 pm i've been changing my maxi ever hour...and it is FULL...today every 2 hr but thats bc it was an overnight maxi and was lasting a it longer.

    I passed the retained tissue on Monday (1st day of super heavy flow with huge clots to boot!). My beta hcg is now 2.

    I'm relieved my body is cleaning house but the constant bleeding feels like a mc all over again

    Hope it ends soon!

    That sucks MrsG really hope the bleeding eases up soon. As you said, sounds like you're having a good clean out. Will you be ttc this cycle? Sorry again for your loss

    its so unpredicatable isnt it! All I got for my 1st AF after D&C was 4 days of extremely light spotting between 12-6pm each day. Absolutely nothing over night or in the morning. It was so weird. Hopefully this cycle will be a good cycle for us both.

    Pbn3,

    Not sure if i will be ttc or not. I was HE during the mc to boost up blood supply and only on LE for 2-3 weeks (if i O next week it will be about 3.5 weeks).... Not sure if that is long enough

    On the other hand, i'm still slightly anemic and the first couple cycles after mc are supposed to sway girl. I'm not getting any younger...maybe being pg those hormones made a good egg for once?

    It will depend on DH and if he's in the mood (we agreed to not try/not prevent...ha! Just got to keep my ocd self from peeing on opk )

    Due to age I think it is imperative that you try as long as your doc gives you the all clear. We cannot be skipping months because we don't know when Goldie the Golden Egg will show.

    I would go for it if I were you, Mrs Goodies. With all the blood you lost I really think that TTCing post-miscarriage would outweigh the time off diet and still sway pink (maybe I'm biased because I'm in a similar situation and have decided that for myself, though). Hope to see you on the Jan or Feb 2WW threads

    I am on cd10 and still LOW on monitor (mind you I was bleeding full flow until cd8!...then when i passed the last large clot my bleeding stopped! Cold turkey! Not taper off and spotting like a normal period usually does)

    My FSH on cd3 was a 2.....2!!!!! Normal for me is between 5-7

    I am not sure if i will even O this month as I am not sure if this is a new cycle or still still part of my miscarriage cycle. I did not have 20 days with no bleeding (only 9 days) before starting this last 8 days. They say you have to have 20 days with no bleeding before it counts as a period after mc.

    Last month, I was too terrified to BD with the retained tissue but I doubt I could have gotten pg with it still inside me.

    So now I am now 2 days no bleeding and hoping to make it to 20 days no bleeding....but not sure if I will O this cycle at all....so weird to have low sticks when I usually get a surge by now.....but we BD yesterday just for fun anyhow...(i actually remembered how

    I had that one time postpartum too. went on and on and on for what felt liek ever and then a huge clot and it stopped. (sorry TMI, I know)

    I personally don't buy the 20 day rule as I've seen people get pregnant quicker. Your lining grows from inside out so you can regrow 2/5 of your lining while bleeding.
