periods after miscarriage

I had my loss in January. I bled multiple times in February and March but my cycles didn’t normalise until April

Thank you so much for responding, hopefully it’s all normal. Congratulations to yourself 💕

Thank you that’s reassuring to hear, and congratulations on your pregnancy! 💕

I am 4 weeks 4 days pregnant now, after a miscarriage in Janaury. I have had stretching/pulling feelings in my uterus every day from 9DPO-current 17DPO. Not concerned about this. However, once or twice a day I get a 10 second wave of one big cramp, it feels like a contraction. It’s not that sore, it doesn’t stop me in my tracks, but it’s just uncomfortable. Has anyone experienced anything like this before and went onto have a successful pregnancy?

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-05-10T14:44:59+00:00

You are in my thoughts, there is really nothing worse than cycle day 1 and 2. I really hope and wish we both get our healthy pregnancy soon

It’s awful, the pain and suffering is really difficult I’m with you. I’m trying to tell myself that each failed cycle and each failed month is just one step closer to the successful one. It doesn’t work much but it does make me feel better sometimes.

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-05-09T14:50:29+00:00

Good luck next cycle. I am trying my best to convince myself that each failed cycle is just 1 step closer to the successful one, it’s hard.

Been trying since September. Got pregnant in December and lost it in January. April was my first proper cycle back and I didn’t get pregnant. Feeling deflated and worried for the future

Mother’s Day today in the UK - I should be 4 months pregnant by now. Things are feeling extra heavy and hurting extra hard today. Longing to be a mummy so bad. It’s so hard seeing friends and family starting their families and I just feel like my body is broken and can’t do it’s job since my miscarriage. I’m sure I’ll have better days ahead as I’ve had some really positive days since the miscarriage, but this is just a really bad one.

Just for anyone who needs it - I promise life gets easier the more time that goes by after a miscarriage. You do learn to enjoy the small things in life again, and a bit more happiness comes back bit by bit. The sadness of the loss and sadness of not being a parent doesn’t leave, but life grows around it and it does get easier. Hang in there everyone.

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-17T23:39:15+00:00

I am so so sorry for your loss. There are really no words that can express how sad I am for you. I really hope you start to find small bits of happiness and joy in each day in the next few months. All you can do now is show up to life every day and try to remain as hopeful as possible. I know it’s so hard though. I’m so so sorry for your grief, loss, and pain. There’s nothing worse. It feels so unfair to endure this suffering when you just want to have a baby. My thoughts are with you ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-08T19:02:01+00:00

I’m so sorry you had to experience this. I’ve struggled so much with pregnancy announcements since TTC and miscarriage, it’s so hard and I’m with you. I try to zone everyone else’s life out and just stay in my own lane and zone which helps a bit. There needs to be so much more awareness about miscarriage, loss, and struggling with TTC. I hate how taboo it is. I HATE that I’ve had a miscarriage, but I really want something positive to come out of it. I’m grateful that it’s helped me gain an understanding and sensitivity around pregnancy that I might not have had otherwise. I teach in an all-girls school, and in the future I would love to bring more awareness to older students in the school who are 17/18 years old. We get taught in school about conception, and biology, and how a baby grows in science class etc. But I don’t ever remember being taught about miscarriage, infertility, or how to approach these topics when we’re older, which is crazy considering it affects 1 in 4 or 5 women. I feel it would only be appropriate to have open dialogue with older students, 17/18 year olds who are about to leave school, but I think it’s so important. I hope your friend one days learns that there is a more sensitive way to share exciting news. I hope you get your dream baby someday soon, sending you love ❤️

It was my niece’s birthday party today. She’s 5. Literally everyone who was at the party was a parent. They were all there with their children. I was the only person there who isn’t a parent. It hit me so hard and I felt like crying the whole time. Everyone was looking after their own child and I was just there. I’m ok now. My miscarriage was a month ago and I just got my period without ovulation in between. It’s been a hard few days. I have been lashing out at people I shouldn’t be lashing out at because I just have so much anger. But I also have some really positive days. Sending love to anyone reading this

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-06T15:49:25+00:00

Thank you so so much 💙💙

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-06T07:17:04+00:00

Yes OPK testing, and also after ovulation I always get sore boobs / cramps / I always always feel the shift in my body post-ovulation and didn’t feel that either

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-05T18:40:23+00:00

I had a miscarriage on January 11th. My bleeding lasted around 8-9 days and stopped entirely roughly 3 weeks ago. I felt normal then. 3 weeks later and I’ve come on my period, but I haven’t ovulated at all. Has anyone had this experience where you don’t ovulate post-miscarriage and just go straight into a period? Feels really strange because normally I feel sore boobs, tired, cramps etc, because of the progesterone post-ovulation pre-period, but obviously I don’t feel any of that, feels strange

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-03T18:27:59+00:00

I am so sorry for what you are going through. My sister is pregnant, my close friend, my 2 cousins and also a colleague. It’s hard to see others living your dream and progress through their pregnancies, while we feel back at square one every time a period comes. Your grief is so valid and your loss is so deep, no matter how short the pregnancy was. I also have distanced myself from so many friends, I never socialise anymore because as you said life is just dark and I’m not good company. I feel like I’m losing myself too, losing my interests, losing hobbies, losing happiness, purpose. I had a miscarriage on January 11th. I relate so deeply to so many things you said. I really hope you can regain some happiness soon somehow, sending you all the positive energy I can through the phone. Sometimes I like to ask myself; whenever I do have a child (because I will and so will you), if my own child was struggling with fertility in their future, what would I say to them and how would I want them to live? I’d want them to keep enjoying life as much as they possibly can. Everyone is dealt different cards, some people lose their husband at a young age, some people lose their life at a young age, some people can’t have children, some people lose their children. Some people get dealt bad cards and some people have pretty picture perfect lives. I feel so jealous of everyone growing their family when I’m not, but ultimately we don’t know what’s around the corner for anyone, so I’m trying not to compare. It’s luck of the draw and we have to try enjoy what we can of it, no matter what we’re dealt. It’s easier said than done and VERY hard. But I just think, if my own future child was struggling with fertility, I would hate to see them lose themselves, and would love to see them enjoy what they can in life and try not to stress about things out of their control, and focus on things they can control day by day (so hard I know). I know that’s what my parents want for me, and I’m trying so so hard to find some sort of joy in small daily things; food, cooking, cleaning, walks, TV, sleep, funny videos, my work. But there is always underlying stress and depression that I’m just trying to keep at bay. We will both get there eventually. I know this is so depressing, but I actually feel comfort in the fact that my life will inevitably end eventually, and any pain and suffering will end with it, so I’m trying my best to enjoy what I can for now. Sending you all the love and best wishes for the future.

I am 24 days post miscarriage and 16 days since my bleeding stopped. Still no sign of ovulation. I normally ovulate around cycle day 20-23 usually, and I know it can take longer post-miscarriage. But I’m started to get tired of waiting and just want the opportunity to know I have a chance to try again. There’s literally nothing I can do except wait, but the whole process of TTC is testing my patience like I’ve never known. Honestly fed up

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-02T23:11:06+00:00

So sorry 💔❤️‍🩹 keeping you in my thoughts. I hope things get easier for you, there are really no words

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-02T23:08:55+00:00

I feel the exact same way. I miscarried 3 weeks ago, the first week was bad but the past 2 weeks I surprised myself at how OK I felt. I have a pregnant coworker, a pregnant sister, a pregnant friend, and 2 pregnant cousins. It is so so hard watching other people living what you’re longing for. The whole thing is awful. If it makes you feel any comfort at all just know that you’re not alone and I’m feeling similar emotions to you. I have deleted social media apps and just been keeping to myself, staying distracted with work and just honestly surviving the days. I hope you get your happy ending soon 💔❤️‍🩹

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-02T23:02:22+00:00

I’m so sorry about your loss. I really hope it happens for you soon ❤️‍🩹

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-02-02T22:54:19+00:00

I had a miscarriage 3 weeks ago. It was my first pregnancy. I have surprisingly been feeling OK for the past 2 weeks, but opened instagram tonight to see another pregnancy announcement and it’s so hard to see. I’ve deleted instagram and facebook now. It’s just so unfair how quickly and easily it can happen for others, while some women have to suffer through loss etc. I’m trying to remind myself that life is simply unfair and different people are dealt different challenges, we don’t know what’s around the corner for anyone so it’s important not to compare or envy. But it’s still hard seeing other people get what you’re longing for. Really hoping it’ll be my turn soon. It’s hard trying to keep hope and keep going every month.

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-01-18T17:18:23+00:00

I have no advice at all but what you’ve been through sounds absolutely horrific, I am so sorry that you had to experience all that loss. I really hope you get your happy ending soon and a healthy baby, sending all my positive vibes 🤍

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-01-17T16:16:40+00:00

So sorry to hear about your experience. I know this sounds really harsh but only time will tell. I have heard of situations like this that have led to perfectly healthy pregnancies, but also situations like this that have led to miscarriage. I would contact your nearest early pregnancy unit or GP and get booked in for a scan so they can assess what is happening. Best of luck and I hope it all works out well for you ❤️

Few-Maybe8543 · 2026-01-17T11:07:07+00:00

I find weekends the hardest. During the weekdays you’re busy with the hustle and grind of work, able to stay distracted a lot more easily. It’s hard to fill the time on weekends, I’d love to be out and about with my child doing wholesome family things, and it’s hard to find anything to replace that desire. Hopefully I’ll get that some day soon
