Oh man...almost 7 weeks pp and my period is here. I'm breastfeeding and was hoping for a little bit longer of a respite!! Worst cramps ever and I feel like I'm bleeding more than when I did after giving birth!! Normal? Or should I call the Dr? Just started the second week of my birth control-could this have brought on my period? Ugh...I hate being female sometimes!!
I thought I had started my period about a week after I started the mini-pill. That was 5 weeks ago and nothing else happened, so I think it was just the birth control.
I had my IUD put in today and I'm bleeding from that but I believe you can get your period anytime after the baby is born...you just got lucky. (Not lucky, you know what I mean)
Also, "normal" is relative - some people are still bleeding from delivery at 6 weeks.
5 cycles of "TTC" - 3 intentional, 2 not so intentional. 5 BFPs. My rainbow arrived 10/15/14. TFMC 08.02.13 at 19+ weeks. Everyday I grieve for my little Olive.
