AF/Spotting after m/c

I am 41 days post a D&C (at almost 13 weeks pregnant).  My levels were at 6 last Friday and will be checked again this Friday.  I have spotted the last 3 days...like I had to wear something for 10 mintues or so and then nothing the rest of the day.  I started spotting this morning and thought it might be AF, but it's not getting heavier.  Anyone have any ideas on if this is AF?  When I would consider it AF if I've been spotting so much?

Latrice - I know you got AF after levels were at 0...did you just start bleeding or spot first?

The bleeding stopped completely, so it was just a little spotting...and nothing since.  I had my levels tested again today so I should know this afternoon what is going on.

Actually when i got my levels back on that friday they were at 8, i was suppose to go back next friday to have them drawn again, but wednesday i started bleeding, i never went back friday (i shoudve). It was a medium flow, i bleed for 3 days then the 4th day i started spotting and the 5th and 6th then that was it. I normally have a heavy flow that last 7 whole days.

Maybe the bleeding will get heavier, did you ever go back and get your results, you were around the same number as me right 8 or 10 right.

See what happens the next 2 days, but you can always call the dr just to get an insight on what they may think.  Keep us posted on whats going on, i will keep you in my prayers.

I had my D&C June 1st, and started first AF on June 29th.  In my case I spotted for a day before hand, then it was pretty normal.  This month however I started spotting 2 or 3 days before, which is not somthing I normally do.  Our systems can take a while to adjust after a D&C even if our levels are down to 0.   You are probably getting ready for a full AF.  I wish you well, take care.
