PP period ?

I am gonna sound like an idiot so bare with me. How do you know when you get it? What I mean is I quite having red blood around 2 weeks and have just had light brown spotting since then. Though I have noticed with bowel movements I push out darker red blood but only then. I just went to the bathroom to only pee and had bright red blood. Please tell me it just happened to be some spotting. It would suck big time if that was AF since I am ebf. I don't have any other AF symptoms though.

Re: PP period ?

  • I *think* that pp bleeding can come and go and that it's considered pp bleeding up until 6 weeks pp, but I can't swear to that :P

    ETA: I however just got my first pp period and I promise you it sucks as much as you think it will!

    Ditto. And I just got my PP period, and let me tell ya.... if you are anything like me, you'll KNOW. I was bleeding through tampons every 1-2 hours. It was not even close to being pleasant.

  • Oh, I was scared to use tampons.  I want to though.  I was worried about the excessive bleeding though. 

    Gah, being a girl totally sucks right now!

    Yup, I'm on mine, and I had to take 600 mgs of ibuprofin because cramps were bad and I also had to constantly change my tampon which isn't normal.

  • I hope yall are right because I am not ready to deal with that biiitch that is AF!!

  • My LO is 3 months and I haven't gotten my period yet. (I'm EBF, too.) I bled for about a month off and on. It comes and goes... but then it just stopped and I still haven't gotten AF. Got my fingers crossed that it stays away for a while!
  • Lochia can last for a while yet, and menstration shouldn't start for at least 3 months normally. Everything I have read says that lochia is similar to menstration, so I don't know how you could tell them apart aside from when it occurs
