    Question Surprisingly light...

    I had a natural m/c nearly 6 weeks ago and on Tuesday (after 5wks and 2 days) I finally got my AF. I was expecting it to be very heavy and painful as I have read in some threads on BB, this is what happens. But the weird thing is that, while it was really painful (I had the max number of napro tablet's allowed in one day) it is very light, lighter than I ever had before the m/c.

    Has anyone had this happen and should I be worried?

    After my last m/c my AF was light and not painful at all. I don't think it's anything to be worried about.

    Hi PinkLilly
    I know what your talking about I think!!!
    Wait till your next AF and if it is light/lighter with the pain let me know.
    Did you have a D&C or infection after you miscarraige???
    Do you know that you can take 2 Panadol and 2 ibruphen with in 2hours of each other as they are pain killers from 2 different "families". I have to do it all the time to quiten my pain to a whisper.

    Take care

    Sorry for not replying sooner.

    Chris - I had a natural m/c, no D&C, and no infection after. Will wait to see what the next AF is like. Thanks for the tip re painkillers. I don't usually need painkillers for anything - except AF!

    Thanks everyone for responding.

    Hi Pinklilly
    Just seen this post
    If it continues like this AF go and see a Gyn.
    I know what AF pain can be like, as I have had to go to hosp because of it
    But I have stopped doing that as they just give me what I have at home.
    Gp don't know what else to do for me

    Take care
    Chris
