Recent D&C

[emelouz]

I had a d&c on 10th July.  I bled until 24th July, which was exactly two weeks.  It has now been 5weeks since my d&c and 22 days since i stopped bleeding.  Today I had spotting, I thought it was the start of my period, but it literally disappeared as quick as it came.  Is there anything i should be worried about, or should I just wait and see if it happens again?

Awww, I'm so very sorry and I hope you feel better soon! Get out the heating pad and some Midol. The first period after birth/miscarriage is typically very intense and painful.

yes it came in full flow and agony this morning, think i was just being over anxious about the whole thing, and it couldn't be quick enough because i want to try again as soon as its over!  thanks for your reassurance

It's definitely enough time for bleeding to be considered a period. However, spotting is not a period. It could be that your body is just trying to have a period. Relax and it will come!
