second af after miscarriage

[shorty100]

Hello, hope someone can help.

I had a mc at the end of jan and my first af took 9 weeks to come. My cycle before mc was 30 days and no more than 32.

Was just wondering if anyone has any experience of their second af also being late as currently over a week late. Pregnancy tests showing bfn so far. Thanks

shorty Sorry for your loss, doesn't help when your body still seems to be all over the place months later. It can take a couple of cycles for your body to return to normal. Do you chart your temperatures or have any other ways you can estimate ovulation? It's possible you ovulated later than usual, which is why you're getting bfn's. If you're ttc you could still be pg, just testing too early. What kind of management did you have for your mc? If it was an erpc you could mention the long cycles to your gp and ask for a scan to make sure your uterine lining is developing properly. But in all likelihood, you're just having another weird post-mc cycle and the next one will be as normal. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply digitalgirl, the way the mc was handled wasn't very good to be honest and haven't had much explaining to me. My doctors haven't been very helpful either.

I don't chart or anything don't like the idea of it taking over. Think i'm just going to have to be patient.

I think it can take a few cycles to get back into routine again. Would it be worth making an appt with your own doctor to have a chat about it? Just to set your mind at ease? I understand what you say about the charting etc. I bought an OPK this month (30 Day one) and I won't allow myself to buy another one. Might be useful to get a handle on how the OV cycle works... once you're TTC again. Try not to worry (so much easier said than done!!) as that can maybe slow things down too. Grief takes a hell of a lot out of you both physcially and emotionally so it's only natural for things to take a while. Eat as well as you can. xx
