I haven't done a good job of keeping track of the doings of my body passed the week mark of the miscarriage. I bled and cramped off and on for another week and then week 3 it was spotty. I kept thinking I was done and then surprise! I had a LOT of blood tinged mucus. It looked stretchy and fertile but I wasn't sure whether it was that or perhaps infection? I was relieved to go to the midwife that week (appt was April 4) and find out that everything looked good and healed, and she confirmed that it did look like fertile mucus and perhaps my body was trying to ovulate. Sure enough the mucus changed and went away for a few days so I anticipated my period arriving some time this week. Sunday night I had very mild cramping and a little bit of blood so I thought maybe that was it. But nope, nothing. Last night I went to the bathroom and was surprised to discover a "lot" of blood/clots in the toilet. No warning. I guess this is my period? Today the blood is more brown. I expect this is my period but it is also the final cleansing of my uterus.
Between this weirdness and an ear infection, I have not been very motivated to exercise. It is like contractions in my ear. As painful as the m/c was, I've been popping pills for my ear ache like crazy while I did nothing for the contractions.
