Hi guys! Quick question, when did you get your first period post partum?
Everything online says if you’re not breastfeeding you can expect your period after 5/6 weeks, I’m 10 weeks pp and no sign of my period 🫠

I got mine at 10 weeks PP while exclusively breastfeeding haha. it’s all about your hormones so everyone is different.

I had mine 6/7 weeks pp xx

I didn't get my first period with either of my pregnancies until after each of my LOs were a year old

I exclusively breastfed and I got mine at 4 months

6 weeks then a gap until 9 months. Exclusively breastfeeding

I’m 12 weeks pp went on the pill at 9 weeks and hadn’t had a period only a couple of days spotting, gp wasn’t concerned x

It can come at any time regardless of breastfeeding or not.

5-6 weeks pp and I exclusively breastfeed.

Still breastfeeding my second at 12mo came back around 6 mo. Same with my first.

I got mine 3 months post partum even with breastfeeding unfortunately. Then my supply DIPPED.

I ebf and got mine at 14months.

I'm curious, did ur baby start sttn at that time too?

I’m exclusively breast feeding, first sight og any type
Of blood was very minimal blood on wiping for only 2 days at 5.5 months post partum ,
Every woman and their body is different and there’s no way to predict period back apart from if you’re without birth control to watch your vaginal discharge changes for ovulation.

no, she actually never slept through the night until about 13/14 months old.. it was rough. No matter what I did, she didn't sleep.

I was EBF until 12 months and didn’t get my period until 16 months!

My question is , how do we know when it’s a period 😂? I’m still bleeding/sporting from my c section (3 weeks pp) ? When will I know the difference ?

I stopped bleeding at just under 5weeks post partum and the last 2 weeks was very light, I’m expecting my first period to be quite heavy 🥹

ahh ok thank you! Yeah I have seen to have gone light now , last week went abit heavy but it seems to be slowing down , I’m guessing il stop bleeding and then if I bleed in a few weeks then that’s a period ? 😂I have zero idea

that’s what I’m thinking is going to happen anyway haha, I went back on the pill last week so I don’t know if that’s affecting it at all either aha

yeah mine didn't sttn till 21months. It was rough and she nursed at night till then too
