    Often you will see your next period come about the usual time that you would expect it... but for some women it can be off for a few cycles before getting back to the norm.

    It is a very early miscarriage... when the embryo doesn't take. Many women actually will have one without even knowing about it as it is so early and often any bleeding occurs around the time of the next period anyway. They usually go unnoticed, but with early testing now women are much more aware of when they are first pregnant.

    Odds are you will start back up about the time your period would have normally come about if you had not become pregnant. There are exceptions however, so it may be in the next week or so, or it may be a bit longer.
