I had a miscarriage at the beginning of february and had an ERPC, i have started bleeding last week but it is really light.

I was told that my 1st period may be really heavy bit mine hasn't been.

Is this normal?

I don't have any experience, as I had mc three weeks ago and still waiting to ovulate, but I read that it could be very heavy or very light. Anything and everything is normal, apparently!

I agree with PrePG that it depends on the individual. I mc 3 weeks ago, still bleeding a little from that and so not at your stage but have been advised in mc clinic that first period may be v light, heavy or normal for you.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
