Spotting after miscarriage & D&C

[babybaby11]

Hi All,

I had a D&C done on July 27th.  The bleeding stopped a few days after that, but I didn't expect the spotting to continue this long.  Is this normal?  It's going to be 2 weeks post D&C tomorrow.  This was actually my second D&C, but with the first one, bleeding lasted a couple of days and spotting a few days after.  I will be following up with my OB on Friday, but I'm just wondering if I'm okay?  Thanks.

AFTER MY D&C I BLEED FOR A DAY AND A HALF THEN IT STOPPED AND I SPOTTED 3 DAYS LATER BUT ONLY FOR 2 DAYS SO I THINK YOU WILL BE OKAY BECAUSE EVERYONE'S BODY REACTS DIFFERENTLY TO THIS PROCEDURE BUT IF IT'S SOMETHING YOU ARE REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT PLEASE INFORM YOUR DOCTOR

my bleeding and spotting lasted 15 days .. I did a lot of searching for info and found this was normal .. even longer!  I hope it eases soon and you can start healing

My spotting lasted 2 weeks after the D&C and then that was it. I think you're still ok. Your body has to do alot of adjusting.

I had my d&c in the end of June and I have spotted almost every day.  My family doctor said it was okay and it could last 3 months while hormones regulate.  I have looked around to confirm an answer to this and can say from everything I have read, up to 3 weeks is the average time you might expect to bleed for so you are still under that.  I'm interested in hearing other experiences though.
