okay, i had a baby girl march 18th, and she is fine... i had her vaginally. but then i had to have a d&c on wednesday april 16th because they left peice of the placenta in me. well after that i just had spotting, with some slimy bloody discharge, sence i had it done, and for a couple days ive had little pain on my right side, and now i have more blood. its not heavy yet, just more then just spotting. could it be my period coming back that soon after the d&c. im so worried, because i dont want to go through this process of another d&c again. someone plese help me

Hello,

See what happens over the next week.  A small amount of spotting is normal after a procedure.  If it persists you may need to be re-evaluated.

Best regards,

Dr. Downing

so i went back to the doctor that ive seen through the pregnacy and after having my baby girl. she said after a d&c i could bleed up to 21 days with it. but shes not sure if its my period coming back or just more bleeding, so next tuesday if it dont go away, she will send me for another ultrasound to see if anything else is stuck in there. god i hope not. i dont want to go through another D&C. even though it was not painful. the blood clots sure werent nice after words
