So I had the miscarriage Aug long and have had my levels checked by my family dr. She said they are low enough. However, I have a follow up appt with the obgyn I saw in the ER. I'm just wondering what to expect.... Physical examination? More bloodwork?
Also, I still haven't had a period since. Is that normal? It's been 2.5 months since the miscarriage

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss! I was on vacation during that time so I must have missed your posts if there were any. I can't answer your questions but I just want you to know how sorry I am for your loss!

Sorry to hear :(. I've been through a lot of them. I got my period right after the following mth when I lost my babies that were under 2mths. However when I lost my baby at 3mths I didn't get my period the next mth I got it the following mth. They will do more blood work and may check u down there to make sure there's no blood clots left.

Thank you both for the kind words!
Oddly enough, I got my period this morning. It's super heavy, painful cramps and I've had a few clots pass. I've been in bed with my heating bag all day. I don't know if it matters but I passed hardly anything during the miscarriage so I wonder if that's why it's so heavy now??
I have to go to my drs office tomorrow to pick up some paperwork so I'll see if I can get in to see her and ask some questions. I see the obgyn on Tuesday but may have to reschedule I guess. I never would have thought a miscarriage and all the follow ups and such would go on so long. Hard to get on with your life :( I'm also sick with a stomach bug (9 freaking days of dirreaha....sorry tmi!!) and just feeling blah and having a pity party!!
You are allowed to have a pity party and we can join you - I am glad you got you period Yesterday and not today,have your questions ready for the dr

Thanks Van!!
Saw my family doctor and doing some testing to see why I've been sick for so long and I cancelled the appointment with the obgyn. Altho, I wasn't thinking and the rescheduled date is a month from now....lol.
