After a miscarriage. Last month I was really late and it was very light and this month I was dead early and real heavy. I always used to know where I was with af but not since I misscarried.

We are ttc again and I know its best to let everything settle down but how long does this go on. If you know or have expierenced this yourself I would really apprecaite your advice.

Thanks xx

I don't know what it's like for everyone, but after my mc I had around 2 months of complete nightmare, i.e. off then on after 5 days or so. Before the mc my cycle used to be exactly 29 days - since the mc to my last period, I haven't had any that are completely regular, and some varied between 22 and 36 (that one got my hopes up!) days.

Although after around 6 months after the heavy loss, it sort of settled to around 33 days, but not as clockwork as it used to be. I also found that for the first 6-7 months the flow varied from 3 days to 6 days and sometimes light, sometimes heavy.

I worked out the LH testing for around 33 days as that was the average, and it seemed to work as I'm now 8 weeks pg, keeping my fingers crossed that it all works ok this time round!

Also we started trying again after my first "normal" period, i.e. the one that seemed to me to be back to a sort-of regular cycle. I don't think you will conceive if your body's not ready for it.

Sorry this has ended up being very long, hope it's of some help and good luck! x

After I had India who was stillborn I had a heavy period for about 2 weeks then nothing again till after I had Isabelle. Go figure. I just think everyone is different but if your worried I would go to the gp, even though they are usless
