So I had a c section 2 months ago and in that time frame have had what seems to be 2 periods. First one was 2 weeks ago and now all of a sudden it’s happening again. Has anyone had that happen?

Yes!! I had a c-section and that exactly is what happened to me but more constantly. I never stopped bleeding until now, I have no spotting or period like bleeding. I asked my nurse and obgyn they told me that it's normal and that it won't be possible to know if you actually started or period or not because the inside of your uterus is still healing. So I don’t think you should count those as periods, but more like your body still healing that wound.

I’m 10 weeks postpartum emergency C section and just had first period. Very very light and lasted 5 days. I didn’t even bleed day 4 it was so light.

I think it depends on breastfeeding and just your body in general. I breastfed until 8 weeks.

I am 9 weeks postpartum and bled for a little over 6 weeks. I’m exclusively breastfeeding and do not believe I have had a period yet. I had a c section at 41 weeks three days.

Have any of you used tampons? It’s crazy that I didn’t give birth naturally but I’m so scared to put a tampon in

@Katrina Austin I'm scared to and I honestly think it has to do with my attempt to deliver naturaly and how many things they had inside me during that time 🤦♂️
