    Cramps after Miscarriage
    I had a miscarriage 2 days ago but am still getting bad cramps in my lower abdomen and am wondering if this is normal. The bleeding isn't bad.

    I am so sorry for your loss. It must be terrible.

    Have you seen the doctor? Did you have a D&C done? I really need some more info before I can give you a definitive answer.

    Raspbery leaf tea is excellent for bringing your hormones back into balance and speeding up the healing. If youcare to try this make sure its rsberry leaf and not just raspberry flavored, You can find it in the health food area at most grocery stores. Sorry for your loss.Hope your pampering yourself

    I had cramps on and off for about a week after I started to miscarry. It can take a whle to lose all the tissue- sorry to be so blunt. I am so sorry for your loss. It's a horrible time.

    Yes, it can take a while, but an exam by a doctor is strongly recommended so that you know for sure that all tissue has been expelled. Without expelling the complete contents of the uterus you run a very high risk of a severe infection.
