Irregular periods after M/C

[ll80]

I had my m/c not long before you and my cycles are not back to normal yet either.
I was 28 days like clock work but the 1st af after m/c was 32 days and lasted for a couple days longer with annoying spotting at the end.
The 2nd cycle was 31 days but I had some spotting on CD27.

I am on CD 26 I think atm and not sure when I am "due" for af, sometime this week I should think, but if going by my previous norm should be due Monday. I'm not holding my breath though.

Good luck

Hi Scarlett,
I am sorry to hear about your miscarriage, but am glad that you have found this site- I hope that you find it as supportive as I have.
My first period took it's time to arrive (I was very impatient), but my next one came after 33 days, which is usual for me. I have been told that they should go back to normal after the 2nd, but I agree with AJC that stress can be really important. Don't worry, I have heard of loads of women whose cycles have been a bit of a mess for up to 6 months following m/c. The way I see it is that a miscarriage is a really stressful event (emotionally and physically), so it's no wonder that things dont bounce back to normal straight away.

Were your periods regular before you miscarried?

I hope this helps, good luck. x

thanks girls for all your replys. I'm also very sorry for everyones loss.

well my AF finally arrived yesterday on cd37

to answer your question canaray my cycle is normally spot on 33 days so it was a little unusual for it to be late.

i think AJC and yourself are definately spot on with the stress.....once i read that it was common to have irregular periods after m/c my period came the next day lol.....

and im sooo glad i found such and informative Forum!
