Bleeding & what next (TMI sorry in advance!)

[golcarlilly]

Hi all

Well, I have had a sequence of bleeding now and just wondering what will be next:

Start of m/c - brownish discharge
Medical Management - clots and niagra falls of blood
3 weeks following MM - bright red blood with a few small clots
Today(36 days after start) - brownish discharge

The doctor told me to expect a very heavy period so am anticipating that at some point just don't know when which is making me totally paranoid! Plus she told me not to bd untill bleeding has stopped so does that mean I can if brown discharge stops and AF doesn't come straight away or do I have to wait until AF come and gone???

Hey hun,

Ive got no advice for you, but try not too worry about it too much. I too am waiting for 1st due on sat if the 4 week approximation is right. Its hard when you don't know what to expect.

I know I haven't probably said anything that will help but you know... just wanted to say something.

Take care

Why don't you give the unit in Halifax a call and ask them? I was told to ring if I had any questions. I don't know the answer I'm afraid but I'm sure they'll help.

They said the same to me too, I just feel a bit ridiculousrude asking if I can BD though, the doc I saw seemed shocked I might want to!! - when I asked she said 'but you are still bleeding my dear!!' feel like a bit of a nympho LOL it has now been almost 6 weeks sorry way TMI again

If I were as soon as you stop give yourself a further 24-48 hours and then go at it. lol. x When you do, tell me what to do cause I've forgotten.

Well The Dr. had told me if I was going to Bd to use a condom because your cervix might be open still. But I only bled for 6 days so I just waited a couple days after to make sure and went on normally. You should be fine if he uses a condom.

Perhaps you could write a manual - I'm forgetting what to do as well and I've a while to go before I can re-learn!

that made me laugh out loud

after my last m/c I had a erpc and I stopped bleeding in 5 days then bd's straight away ... 23 days after I was in theatre I had my worst af of my life...and i bled for 10 days bd some more then got a bfp on day 23 so as long as it has stopped at some stage I would carry on..xx

Cheers girls, your replies made me seems we are all in same position, maybe the docs are in a conspiracy to stop us bding and therefore save themselves work in prenatal care?

It's been just over 2 weeks now since I gave birth to my son, who was born sleeping. I had really heavy bleeding for most of it but the past couple of days I've been just having brown discharge and it's not that bad. I have to use a condom because I'm not allowed to concieve for 3 months after having rubella immunisation which I had when I left the hospital. Tonight or some time soon I'm gonna have to give in. Bit of blood isn't gonna stop me! I need some luvin' too!
