Period after miscarriage and D&C

Corlia

Hi ladies

I had a miscarriage at 19 weeks on 1 November 2020. I had light bleeding all the way up to the 11th. On the 11th I went for a D&C and only had light spotting when I went to the bathroom and wiped until the 15th. Today I am having cramps and the bleeding is getting more. I also got a negative pregnancy test this morning. Could it be my first period starting so soon? Anyone else experienced something similar?

Thanks in advance
