    Is this normal??

    I lost my baby 4 weeks ago. I had to have D+C. I was put on a high dose pill (I was on the pill when i fell pregnant) My hormones are all over the place and I'm still feeling very down emtionally.
    I had my period last week, finished the sugar pills and onto the regualr pills for 3 days and now i've started bleeding again. Its as heavy as a normal period, not just spotting or anything.
    Is this likely to be my body adjusting to it all or is it likely that there is something wrong and that is why I am bleeding again?
    Its not beena very pleasant 4 weeks and now i'm starting to worry

    Hi Dee,

    I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I had a missed miscarriage and a D&C three and a half weeks ago so I can relate.
    I haven't had a period since then so I cant tell u my personal thoughts. Although I am a nursing student, so I can give u some idea, but don't take my word as gospel, I'm not qualified yet! I had a look in my text books and I'm pretty sure your bleeding would be hormonal, after what your body has been through, it would hardly be surprising. Although, it would be a good idea to see your doctor just in case, I would. Better to be safe. But I wouldnt worry, it takes a good few months for your body to get back to normal after everything you have been through.
    Let us know how u go.
    All the best,
    Julie. x
