How long after giving birth did you get your first period?
I know this has been asked before, but I did a search and so many posts came up with the word period in them.
I am not breastfeeding anymore--stopped almost two weeks ago. My son was born on March 11, 2006--I am just curious! Thanks

Re: How long after giving birth did you get your first period?
I'm convinced I'm pregnant. It's been almost 8 months and NOTHING. I weaned Alex almost 3 months ago.
I have a Dr. appointment next week so hopefully I'll find out what's going on then!

Re: How long after giving birth did you get your first period?
I got mine back around 6-7 weeks. I bottle fed. It sucked because I bled postpartum for a long time and then got my period back so I felt like I was constantly bleeding

Re: How long after giving birth did you get your first period?
I was exclusively BF and I got mine at the 7th week mark after giving birth. I bled for 6 weeks and then at 7 weeks I got it.
