Hi,
Thanks for the query.
As you undergone D&C after the miscarriage, there is less possibility for retained products.
And as you are having no fever, discharge, abdominal pain etc. there may not be any problem.
Minimal spotting can be seen for up to one week to ten days after miscarriage.
So the distension you mentioned could be due to empty feeling due to abortion.
You wait and watch for few weeks possibly it will subside.

For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
