I'm so sorry for your loss, your body will get back on track eventaully, every women is different but 12 weeks does seem like a long time, I can't give much advice, maybe try a different Dr?
Thank you for your advice. I just recently called another doctor that specializes in fertility, miscarriages, etc. to possibly get a second opinion on what's going on. My OB seems to think that this new cycle of heavy bleeding is another period (last suspected period was 2 weeks ago and was very heavy as well...I had a 5 day break of very light brown spotting until yesterday morning). My OB is hoping that in 6 to 7 days it will stop. I will keep my fingers crossed.
I can relate to your story. I had my miscarriage 8 1/2 weeks ago... had to have a D&E since I didn't start bleeding on my own. I was almost 11 weeks pregnant and went in for sonogram and there was no heartbeat. Since I had the D&E on February 22nd, I have continued to have brown spotting, some days heavier then others. I think I did have a period about 2 1/2 weeks ago, since the blood turned red, but within a few days went back to brown spotting again. My doctor also seems to think it's normal and wants to give it one more cycle before doing any additional tests. I know exactly how you feel, it's like a never ending nightmare!!!
I had a m/c on 10/27 and bleed from that day til 12/30 and the dr told me 2 that it was normal
Thank you for all of your input. It is good to know that other doctors agree and think that this is not abnormal. UPDATE....I finally stopped bleeding on Sunday 4/20/08, 12 1/2 weeks after the miscarriage D&C. The bleeding lasted from 1/24/08 to 4/20/08.
