Is this normal please? It's not heavy any more but is more than spotting and is red, not brown, and quite stringy?
We want to TTC asap but is sex while you're still bleeding a definite no-no?
Thanks

I bled for two weeks with mine. That's not unusual.

Personally I would avoid sex whilst still bleeding. I'm not sure what the official advice is.

I've found after my natural mc I bled for about 2 weeks, after ERPC it ended much sooner.

You shouldn't have sex whilst you at still bleeding due to infection as the cervix is still open and you mustn't TTC until you had a negative pregnancy test.

I took me 1 week to have a negative after my first, 2 weeks to get a negative after my 2nd and 4 weeks to get a negative after my 3rd.

You must do that otherwise you could do a test, think it's positive and be heartbroken when it's potentially left over hormones

I'm so sorry for your loss

I bled on and off for a month with each of mine. One natural one ERPC.

Thanks all. I've finally stopped bleeding...I hope!

I bled for ages after my mmc, I also spotted/slightly more than spotted throughout my first 2 cycles after there was only a few days of nothing so I think it is normal

Jus ur body trying to catch up and get back into the swing of things
