Hi All,

Wanted to hear from your experiences please.

I gave birth to my
Son at 16+6 on 18th July this year. No known cause yet, still awaiting autopsy result.

I stopped bleeding a couple of days ago and prior to that all blood loss was old blood for the 2 weeks before it stopping. Today I have just noticed bright red blood, much more like spotting than a period (in my experience as my periods are usually really heavy). I don't know if this is a continuation of the post loss bleeding or some kind of period. I can't even tell if I'm cramping due to putting my back out and being in pain in that general area already.

Can anyone help answer this? What's your experience of periods/bleeding after loss?

Thank you x
