Period after m/c

[claire5522]

I had a miscarriage @ 10 weeks, 4 1/2 weeks ago.  i still haven't got my period.  Does anyone know when to expect it? Should I be worried it hasn't arrived?

Yeah i wouldnt worry at this stage hun,its going to take a while until your body re-adjusts. You should have a period within 8 weeks of the complete miscarriage. I dont know how it is in australia with insurance for health care ect but i had weekly scans to make sure the miscarriage was complete and weekly blood tests.

I hope things return to some noramilty soon!

Good luck hun.

Thank you,  I had a natural m/c (well I had the tablets that induced it).  My doctor said that my HCG levels would half every day until they were gone and my emotions have got back to normal in the last 2 weeks so hopefully that is a sign that the levels are down... She never mentioned anything about checking my levels.

I'l be a little more patient and if it hasn't arrived I'l go to the doctor. Thanks

It took 6 weeks for me to get my first one.. I had a d&c .. but it took a week and a half for my HCg to drop below 5....

No I wouldn't be worried, give it another 4 weeks and if it hasn't arrived see the doctor, it just takes time for things to settle down.
