I miscarried a week ago and am still bleeding quite heavily. Have never bled this long before. Is this normal?

I am sorry for your loss. How far along were you? Bleeding from a miscarriage can last several days to several weeks.

[laekyn59]

Thank You. I was only about 3 weeks. That's why I find it unsual to be bleeding this much. I found out espicially early because I had unexplained bleeding.

Yeah, that's a little early to be bleeding this long. Have you been to the doctor to make sure all of the products of conception have been passed? A retained, or partially retained, placenta can cause abnormal bleeding.

[laekyn59]

No I have not been back. He said that everything should pass on its own and I should be fine. But I feel myself getting tired my hemoglobin level was 8 so he put me on iron pills and said that explained the weakness. But I feel more tired than every and the bleeding hasn't even teased up a little.

Time to go back to the doctor. There is a possibility you have not passed everything. This would account for the excessive bleeding.
