You will definitely know the difference. It's much heavier than your usual period and it comes pretty much right back on schedule a month later. The first week or so I barely bled at all. Then about a week later the bleeding started almost like a light period.. but I could pretty much tell it wasn't my period and was just the last remnants of the procedure. A few weeks later, right on schedule on day 29 post D&C, I got my period. With a vengeance. It came on like no other. So, you will definitely know when it's your period. Just give it a couple of weeks. Good luck to you and I'm very sorry for your loss.
1st period after D&C
I'm currently 2 weeks post D&C and my HCG levels were 35 on 9/8. My OB said I should have my period within the next week. To those who have had a D&C before, how did you know it was your period and not more old blood from the procedure? Was it a regular flow of blood or was it more like spotting? Just wondering what to expect.
