How long do the symptoms last after a five week miscarriage?

Answer 1

after the inicial yucky part besides the emotional youll be right back to your old self

Answer 2

After only 5 weeks it should be like a really heavy period and last a week and sometimes a week and a half. This is because your placenta had not grown very big. If it is over the first trimester it should be more like the bleeding after childbirth. A lot of women have a first trimester miscarriage and don't know because it is almost indistinguishable from a very heavy period. If the bleeding lasts more than a two weeks, if you have severe cramping (worse than menstrual cramps), or a bad odor, you should go to the doctor and make sure everything came out.

Answer 3

Your body won't get back to normal for a couple of months. I just had a miscarriage at 17 weeks this last August- and it took a good 3 months for me. I am just now feeling normalish. If you think you're having abnormal problems discuss them with your doctor. They'll be able to put any worries to rest.

Answer 4

physically by the second period, all changes had returned to normal and i felt like my old body was back.

emotionally that all depends on how and if you have grieved/ dealt with the loss as well as having the right support.

i have had 5 misscarriage and from them alone i can tell you each one had its different issues.
my first was a shock, found out i was preg and told i lost it on the same day. ( bad as it sounds it didnt affect me)
the last ones were very hard.

see a counsellour, your religious advisor or a trusted friend even if you dont feel the need too it will help in all kinds or ways.

u need to trust what your body/mind is telling u.
