I had my miscarriage and ERPC on 16th May so just 30 days ago. I bled for about 10 days after it. on Friday I started with what I thought was the beginning of AF but it was really brown and very slight, and just wiped away. Now it has stopped altogether. I had none of my normal signs of AF like bloated belly, sore boobs and acht tummy.

I had a bleed like this when I was pregnant with all of my last 3 kids and it was always when the first months period was due. I did a test, one of the really early detection tests from eBay this morning and it was

I am really impatient and can't stop thinking about it, has any one else had this after a ERPC or miscarrige. What is your first AF supposed to be like?

Any advice or suggestions greatly welcomed ladies xxx

Hi Logibear, I am so sorry for your loss. I had a m/c 2.5wks ago and I am now awaiting my 1st AF. According to the Causes & Myths thread your periods can change in length and be different to how they were prior to being pregnant no matter how long that pregnancy lasted. All I can advise is that you read that thread as, I for one found it very informative, put my mind at rest and, answered alot of my questions. I am sure some of the other girls on here who have had the 1st, 2nd ect AF since their m/c's will tell u how it was for them. Thinking of you

I had this last week, I had brown all week that came and went and varied from very light and only there when I wiped to spotting on my pad. Exactly a week later (today) AF arrived. I had no symptoms at all and thought I might be pregnant again. Its been 35 days since I m/c.

This AF is heavier than my usual periods and I have had small clots come away, which freaked me out a bit as that is what it was like when I m/c at home. My periods only used to last a few days and to be honest although its heavier its not that much more blood so with any luck it wont go on for days and days. Hope this helped. xxx
