How long does miscarriage bleeding last?

I found out 3.5 weeks ago that I had a missed miscarriage (expected to be 8 weeks and was only 5) and have been bleeding since. I was told last week that the miscarriage is incomplete and told to come back in 2 weeks. After tailing off a little over the weekend it started getting really heavy on Sunday night and in Monday it felt like a different type of bleeding, much heavier and more liquid (changing every 1.5 hours) that I wondered if it could be my period. I've felt really tired and dizzy and just so sick of it now and want to be able to move on.
Sorry for the rant but would like to know how long it lasts for and when I can move on. I was thinking about waiting one cycle before trying again but I'm not sure I want to handle more blood. Other than for dating purposes is there any benefit waiting one month?

I had an early loss last Monday and was 5 weeks. I bled heavily for 2 days and have only just today finished bleeding completely. I am assuming I will get my next period in a few weeks but I’d rather not feel like I’m wasting a month. From what I’ve read yes it’s for dating reasons it’s suggested to wait.
Sorry that doesn’t really answer your question!
I tried getting pregnant pretty much straight after my first miscarriage and it took a whole year to conceive again. After my second miscarriage it took me about 7 months to conceive again and now have my beautiful little girl. So I’m guessing it can take your body a while to recover from it. Just don’t be disappointed if you don’t conceive straight away.
But I’m sorry to hear you’re going through this. Hopefully you’re getting the support you need x
were you terrified when you became pregnant for the third time? I am worried that if I am lucky enough again I will just be a constant worry. Had you had any support from Dr with the third time? X
