When am I actually going to start bleeding?

So fed up. 2nd miscarriage in a row - I should be 5+2 today but I knew it was going to be a miscarriage from last Sunday as my pregnancy test lines (originally very strong) started getting lighter and had spotting which for me has always meant MC before (this is now my third). Today my home pregnancy test was very light, and when I got seen at the EPU this morning and did a test there they said it was negative so miscarriage confirmed. They didn't bother with bloods or a scan as the test was negative. But I still have not bled other than the minor spotting earlier in the week, and I still have sore boobs and cramping like I'm about to have a period, but nothing has happened.

Midwife said I might just get my period in 4-6 weeks as normal and there was no need for any further monitoring from them given the test was negative, but surely the MC would make me bleed first? It always has before.
