hi girls as you know i had an ERPC in march..well this is my 3rd AF since then and they have all been very painful and heavier than any of my periods ever?is this normal?i think its completly changed my insides!!

off out for lunch soon with my best friend who has a 4 month old baby to cheer myself up.......who am i kidding im not upset?lol xxxx

Hi Clare,

Yea I think it is normal, I had ERPC in Jan & they said my af could be heavier & painful. I didnt get the 1st af till march & that was excruciating & heavy, the nxt one was heavy & a bit painful & last month was heavy but no pain.

talking to my friends who have had babies say that even tho I didnt carry to full term it does change your periods.

Hope it eases up for you hun xx

oh dear,

this is hard this TTC stuff!! without all the reminders..... thanks laujai tho xxx

bloody things not working now!lol

hi clare

i had erpc on 28th nov and dint get af till mid jan and it was AWFUL - very heavy very painful - i thought i had an infection from op.

then had af 6th feb so really short cycle and that was more painful than previous but much better than the jan one - i did fall pg so havent had an af since (though have bled pretty much every week in pg!)

I would say just from those 2 cycles that it was normal to have a much heavier and painful period but i would like to think that they wouldnt last for too much longer. Maybe go back to gp if next cycle is as painful.

in the meantime - hotwater bottle paracetomol CHOCOLATE x x

thanks summer.
