Hi All,

I had an ERPC yesterday and am pretty much back to normal today apart from a sore tummy and the odd bit of brownish bleeding here and there.

Just wanted to know if anyone else had had one and how long after did your period come? Also if anyone has concieved after an ERPC and how long did it take and is everything normal with the pregnanyc this time around?

Sorry I have no experience of ERPC but I just want to send you some I hope one of the others on here can give you the advice you want xx

I am sorrry. I don't mean to be rude, but what is a ERPC?

It is similar to what we call a D&C where the cervix and womb is cleared out after a miscarriage, and as far as I know there should be no problems conceiving again xxxxx

I'm so sorry for your loss I had mine on 28th Dec and my period came just under 6 weeks later. Hope you don't have to wait to long for yours so you can try again (if thats what you're wanting to do).

Oh I am sorry again. God bless you!

Sending you a hug lovely, hope that you are okay

So sorry to hear what you've gone through!

As the other girl said the procedure you had is also known as a d&c..i had mine 22 feb and like felt pretty much like you describe. Your period will come when it decides to (evil witch ) but most see it coming back 3 to 6 weeks after. This is mainly due to your body's individual way of regulating itself such as the hgc (pregnancy hormone) leaving your body etc..

I dont know if you've decided to start ttc again. But i was given the all clear to right there in the hospital, and also told to expect my period in 3-4 weeks.

Needless to say im still waiting ...but since we're ttc right away im just having fun with it as the general thought is that you are more fertile after as your body is more primed for pg now as a) it has already been pg and recognises allt the symptoms of a pg and b) you're womb has been cleared out, so to speak. In fact, due to the body regulating itself it can be difficult to know when you ov so many women get pg quite quickly..one girl posted her friend got pg 10 days aftr the d&c!!!! crazy..but so you know, it can happen! in any case, since it's so very individual..do whats right for you and take the time you need...

I feel like ive gone though the best (getting/being pg) and the worst of it (the mc) but im hopeful and try to take it all as it comes, one day at a time..(i.e. i have not succumbed to total poas madness yet )

Hope this helps and good luck!!

I'm so sorry. I had a d&c (actually more like a d&e), but anywayz, it took my period 31 days to come after bleeding stopped.

I had my d and c on Tuesday (4th March) and I have only had light bleeding on/off since. I have had a bit of an upset tummy however...has anyone else had this? The doctor told me to expect a period in about a month and not try again till after I have the 2nd period. My friend has just told me today that when she m/c a few months ago (I didn't even know she had) her doctor told her to wait 6 months. I don't think I could be that patient!
