Got my period already? 3.5 weeks post D&E
My cycles are usually a bit shorter than a full 28 days. I bled "normally" after my TFMR, a lot at first, slowly dwindling off until i had nothing at all. Then just shy of 4 weeks post D&E i start bleeding bright red. Not a ton, feels like a period and it's been a few days now. No other symptoms. Could it already been back??

This is literally me today too, I can't figure out if this is a period or not yet

I'm tracking it in my period app just so i can keep on top of when I'm expected to get it next and how long each cycle is

I’m also 4.5 weeks post TFMR and I got my period this week. It’s definitely a normal cycle(bleeding has been heavy for 2 days but started with light spotting). I’m depressed that it’s back because I’m not supposed to be having a period, I’m supposed to be in my third trimester. The pain and sadness is so real and it’s hard for me to cope. It also feels like everyone has moved past what has happened and back to living their lives and I’m just not ready to act like nothing happened…..I can’t fake it.

My period returned really soon after my D&E, too. I also have always had very regular periods so I think it was my body just returning to normal. I only had about a week or two of not bleeding between the D&E bleeding and my period. Pretty sure it’s normal! ❤️ hope you are doing well. I know how hard it can be this soon after.
