abnormal menstruation after miscarriage
by naz0010, Nov 25, 2004 12:00AM
Hello -
Had a miscarriage 2 months ago (actually was considered stillborn at 23 wks). 5 weeks after delivery I had a period, and now it is 32 days later and still no period. Prior to this I was very, very regular (28-30 days at the most, usually 28 days). Home pregnancy test was negative on day 30. Is it normal to have irregular periods after the 1st period resumed regularly after delivery?
I am 36 years old and that was my second miscarriage (1st one at 17 weeks) and periods resumed again normally after that.

Unfortunately, I am a same case as you are!
Had a miscarriage 5 week ago. It was a 23 wks old pregnancy, too. I delivered stillborn boy. It was my 1st pregnancy. My heart are broken in pieces!
I'm waiting for my period now.
As a medical student (future MD) I can tell you that sometimes after delivery you have to wait for periods to be regular again. Just don’t worry because you can affect to delay your period.
You are the only person, which I meet who's really known how I feel. Don’t get me wrong. I have wonderful husband, lots of friends, but they can’t really share my pain. Even my loving husband can’t completely understand my sorrow because he is not a woman.
It’s not nice to see that someone else had the same tragedy, unfortunately we are not alone.
I know that I will think about my baby boy to the rest of my life and hoping that everything be alright next time-next pregnancy.
The time will to alleviate pain, and we will be ready for our future children who are waiting for us.
With pleasure:

P.S. I agree with you in complete! This is a child not a fetus!
