Hi All,

Have a question. I miscarried on Dec. 21, 2004 @ 8 weeks pregnant. Doctor performed a DNC. Everything went well and not about 3 weeks later I am having on and off spotting. Is this normal? The spotting had stopped for about 2 days and thought that it was over with and doctor said I was able to resume sex.

Well my and my hubby did have sex and then 2 days later I started spotting again. I have now been spotting for about 2 days with light cramping. Could having sex cause the spotting to occur? Do I need to go to the emergency room and get checked out?

If someone could get back to me that would be great!

Well bleeding after that procedure is normal.. to an extent. You should not have any bleeding that is heavier than your moderate flow during a period. You also should not have any foul smelling discharge or any moderate to severe pain. Your body is going to be out of sorts for a while. I had that procedure too and about a month after I did the same thing, I was told it was my body adjusting its' self, but if you are really worried see your doctor. Good luck!
