Bleeding Won't Stop After Miscarriage Posted: 02-18-05 07:36am
13 jan 2005 was my first pre-natal visit
& I was so excited. During the
examination, my doctor informed me that I
had a miscarriage (missed miscarriage). I
was 9 weeks into the pregnancy. I was
immediately booked for the d&c. My
concern is that since then my bleeding has
not stopped and I have not had my period.
I bled for 2 days, there after i've been
spotting a brownish colour daily. Last
week I felt a menstruation coming, only to
find that it was a large clot that looked
like a raw liver piece. But still no
period only this brownish discharge. What
is wrong with me & should I be
worried?

Sounds pretty normal to me. Some
bleeding and discharge is to be expected
after having a miscarriage and d&c.
As for the clot, that is normal too, the
doctor may have missed some products of
conception. You should be feeling better
by monday. Do you have a follow-up
appointment scheduled with your doctor?
You probably won't get your period as you
normally would because you were pregnant.
Your body will need to adjust back to
being not pregnant. Hope that helps a
little...I wouldn't be too worried about
it. Sometimes worrying just makes you
feel worse, just relax this weekend.
Take care!

I had minor bleeding for about a montha
fter my last miscarriage and d&c, then
I only got a real period 2 months later so
don't worry too much. If youkeep
bleeding after another 2 weeks then go
back to the doc. Good luck and sorry for
your loss.

i have had this happen to me before, and
the doc. Can give you a green pill to
take that will help stop the bleeding.
Then he can put you on a b/c pill to
regulate your periods again. As long as
you arent passing blood clots the size of
a softball that is normal. Good luck
