Hi.  Sorry for your loss.  I also had a D&C.  Mine was in December.  The 15th, I think.  I bled for about a week and a half afterwards.  Then I did not have a af until March.  So sometimes, it takes a while.  I had a miscarriage prior to that but did not have a D&C and it took about a month and a half before I finally got a normal period.  Good Luck, I hope it starts soon.  I know I wanted to hurry up and get regulated so that we could start TTC again.

Are you meaning 5/24/08? Memorial day was on the 26th this yr, I don't think you mean the 5th. If you do mean the 5th, I would call the dr for an appt. If it is the 24th, I'd give it another week and then call to see what the dr thinks.  Most women (myself included) see a return of af 6-8wks post d&c. Some women do take longer. Is it possible that you are pregant again? Some women conceive at their 1st o after mc and do not get an af.
