I had a very difficult miscarriage at home on Thursday morning. The sonogram yesterday showed my uterus is empty, but I still have heavy bleeding and some cramps. Anyone else have this experience? How long did it last? ↓
I am so glad to see that my bleeding for so ling is normal. My doctor told me it would last about as long as my normal periods lasted. Well, it lasted a week longer. I had a D&E Feb. 25th and really am not sure when I will ovulate again. I never had regular periods to begin with and am so disappointed that this pregnancy (my second) did not last. I do have a healthy 5 year old which keeps me positive knowing I can carry a baby. Good luck to everyone who had to experience this. Rememeber that God has his plan and that he has his reasons even though we may never fully understand. God Bless! ↑
I had a miscarriage four weeks ago and have had heavy bleeding ever since. My doctor told me that you could bleed up to six weeks. Has anyone experienced bleeding this long? ↑
Dena, I had a miscarriage Jan 23. My bleeding lasted a few days after and stopped, then started again and I have been going for about 4 weeks. I'm getting a little impatient. The last time it went on this long was after my son was born 12 years ago. ↑
Hi Beth - sorry for your loss...I had a miscarriage and I've been bleeding straight for over 6 week straight....but the doctor said that last week she believes I had my period...my periods usually lasted b/w 5-7 days and it's been over 12 days since I was told it was my period....is anyone else in the same boat or am I sailing alone? ↑
Hi tabbie...If you are bleeding straight - it might just be that you also had your period. For me I had miscarried at home (using medicine) went back for a checkup, the ultrasound revealed I still had material - my doctor manually cleaned it out (at this point my bleeding had just about stopped...the Dr also noted that I was ovulating) after the cleaning I was bleeding heavily - and then it tappered off but not completely, then I started bleeding heavily (Dr said period began) lasted for ~ 12 days and now I've stopped bleeding....so it can be that you may have had your period ? ↑
I had a terrible miscarriage at work. I didn't even know I was 8 weeks pregnant. There was heavy bleeding for a few days after the miscarriage, but I continued to bleed until I had a cycle (about a month later). My cycle was much heavier than normal and this frightened me. Has anyone experienced a heavy cycle? If so, did your cycles return to the normal flow soon? ↑
i had d & c 3 weeks ago after 2 weeks i was having brown discharge and now its been over 3 weeks im goin to see my doctor tomorrow i hope everythings ok its just so scary i just want it to stop ↑
yep im experiencing the same problem. Wellnot exactly the same. I had my miscarriage 2 months ago and im still experiencing heavy bleeding. doctors say it will tart decreasing but cant see any signs of it. ↑
look im just writing again to ask some advice. i'm trying to stay optimistic with this bleeding that it'll go away but i see no signs of it. Is 2 months a long time to keep on bleeding after a miscarriage.. What i also wanted to ask is that, i had a tablet process to discharge the tissue and fetus in my body. The table was inserted into my vagine. Was that a good way of getting rid of my miscarriage or should i have had it surgically removed? Please reply asap. Need help. ↑
Beth sorry for your loss. I had a mc at 9 weeks but the baby died earlier. My bleeding lasted around 9-10 days. Doctors say it can vary though until your hormones straighten out again. If it is really heavy and you are soaking a pad in an hour I would call the doctor or go to ER. ↑
Nemma- 2 months of bleeding seems very long. I think you need to see a doctor and make sure you do not get an infection. I took anti-biotics to prevent infection, and I was fine. My bleeding stopped after 7 days, and I got my period around the time I should have had I never gotten pregnant. The period itself was heavy and long lasting, which they say is common. But I think you should get checked out. ↑
Fari, I also had a miscarriage on the 8th of this month and I also am still bleeding although it is not heavy, I feel like it is never gonna end. From the looks of it each individual is different... ↑
i had a miscarriage a week and a half ago and i had spotting 2 days before i miscarried and then heavy bleeding for 5 days then i had 2 days of very dark brown discharge now it's light brown. is this normal?? should i get my period when it came before? im really confused and i tried talking to my doctor but she is useless. Can anyone help?? x x ↑
I found out 3 days ago that my 12 week fetus had no heartbeat and I was going to miscarry. I have only had very light brown spotting and no cramping. I was wondering if anyone else took a long time to miscarry. Which is better to get a D&C or do it naturally? ↑
I had a miscarriage last Saturday evening. It was terrible. I had back pains and terrible cramping. I was laying there and I couldnt move and I was just crying in extreme pain. It has been a week and I am still heavily bleeding and sometimes its not clots but its dark almost black thicker blood comes out. I had a D & C last saturday after I found out it was a miscarriage that I was having. I was about 10 weeks pregnant. I am stillhaving stomach aches also. ↑
I had a miscarriage on the 10th of this month. This is my second miscarriage. Both experiences have been very different. If anyone is worried you should really see your Dr. I am no longer bleeding but have a light brown discharge. The Dr has recommended having a swob taken to ensure there is no infection. For all of you who are worried this may be a sensible option. Good Luck to everyone with your next pregnancy.x ↑
Hi, ok this is going to be a little long, but i've searched for this everywhere and can't find a thing so when someone needs an answer to the same question i've been trying to find, they might have better luck. Well I had a miscarriage on may 7, 2005. I actually started bleeding on may 4, 2005. I went to the hospital 2 days later and the stupid doctor on duty said that everything would probably be fine, and i went to my doctor the following day and found out the baby didn't have a heartbeat. I was at 9 weeks and the baby was only at 7 weeks. I prefer to call it our baby and not just a fetus. Anyway back to my story. I was really hard for me, but sometimes I think the harder part is the bleeding I bled pretty heavy for about 3 weeks then it let up...Enough that all i have to wear is a panty liner. Then on June 15 I started to bleed heavy and passed some blood clots. I was very scared and talked to my doctor and she said it was just my normal period, but the thing is I am still bleeding as I speak (type). I am just so sick of it.Anyway the whole point was to let others know that are going through the same thing, that I feel for you and That sometimes we're not all so luck to only bleed for a week or so, but that some of us seem to bleed forever!! Thanks for listening anybody who has the same problem i would be interesed to know or just to talk. moonjodi@yahoo.com ↑
My doctor said you would know if there was. ex. high fever, tender to the touch of the lower stomach....It sucks so bad, i've been bleeding for almost 2months now. I think emotionally I would feel much better if I wasn't still bleeding!! I can tell that I'm so ready to start trying again!!! I can't wait! ↑
I started spotting five weeks ago and then moved into the bleeding about a week later. I have been off and on red to brown for about a month now, I thought I was done last week and then I started again. I am so tired of using liners and it is hard to move on when you have reminders every time you go to the bathroom. I hope this stops soon. ↑
