Missed Miscarriage With D & C At 8 Weeks

Hi there - so sorry for your loss. My 1st pregnancy ended in a natural miscarriage in April/09 at 8 weeks. I got pregnant again after my first period & had a blighted ovum diagnosed at 10 weeks on July 31st/09 - this time requiring a d & c. I bled for about 2 days and then spotted and cramped for 2 weeks post d&c. I am now waiting for my 1st period. It sounds to me that the bleeding that started a week after your d & c was not a period as your body didn't go through it's normal cycle - could of been that the d & c did not remove everything and this was your body's way of getting rid of the excess tissue. I too have read you should have 20 days free from bleeding/spotting in order for it to be a true period. I am not a doctor but it may be best to wait one more period to ensure that everything was removed. Have you had your levels checked to make sure your hormones have gone back to normal? As much as ttc right away helps to take the pain away of losing one pregnancy, the last thing you want is to risk another pregnancy loss. Talking to your OBGYN is probably your best bet to see what they advise. I wish you all the best in future pregnancies and hope it will happen for both of us again soon:=) Take Care! |
