First Period HELP!?

10 replies

It's my first period after my miscarriage and at times it is so heavy that minutes after I put on a new pad I'm soaking through it? Then the period will lighten up but what concerns me is I've never had heavy periods and especially not with large clots in?

Do I need to seek medical advice? Or is a heavy period with clots in normal for the first period after a miscarriage?? Xx

I would say that was certainly normal for me. So sorry for your loss 😔

I'm awaiting my first period after miscarriage, happened on 26th January and wondering how long it can take?

I've had a few miscarriages and the period after is either very very heavy or very very light . I guess our bodies do whatever is necessary.

I had to wear maternity pads & sleep on bath towels. Horrendous.

I have had 4 periods since my MC. They have all been weird. Like, paste like. I also get very bad ovulation pains for 3 days. Then I have 2 days of spotting around CD26/27 then POW! I bleed heavily for 1 day then brown paste. Having a transvaginal scan in the morning to see if any things up!

It's soo heavy with clots. It's been over a week now. It's driving me insane I'm soaking through a tampon and a pad at times then other times I have hardly anything at all x
