TTC after miscarriage

Hi Linzi,

I’m sorry to hear about your miscarriage, and please don’t worry at all about providing too much info.

Many women will spot after a miscarriage, so yes it could be linked to that, or it could be a sign of pregnancy or your period. I’m sorry I can’t give you a more definitive answer. Usually, your period would return between 4 and 6 weeks after experiencing a miscarriage, although this can vary. As it has been just over 4 weeks since your miscarriage, you might want to wait a few more days to see if your period arrives and then take another test. If your period has not arrived after another week and you are still testing negative you should go and speak to your GP just to check there isn’t anything else which might be affecting your cycle.

I hope this helps. I completely understand it must be a very anxious time for you. The Miscarriage Association has lots of information about trying to conceive after a miscarriage which might be useful: miscarriageassociation.org....

Best wishes,

Katherine
