I forgot all about periods...

I was thinking about it this morning and realized I had now idea so I thought I'd ask. I was reading a few posts down about people still bleeding 3 weeks later, so when does your period start up again?

 Sorry if that doesn't make sense, my brain is in 50 places right now.

  • It varies, especially if you are going to BF.  I know someone how had hers 3 months PP, and another person who is still waiting 6 months PP.

  • You def bleed longer then three weeks pp. when you get ur period can vary alot, like pp said. if you bf and your body has to adjust. 
  • It really varies.  If you are breastfeeding, you might be waiting a long time.

    I was 15 months out when I got my first PP period, but some folks get them within just a few months!

  • I didn't have my first real period until DS was 14 months old because I was BF for his first year. 

    Now I will let all the new moms know that I stopped bleeding then had what I thought was my first period at about 7 weeks.  About a month after that I was majorly freaking out that my birth control had failed and I would have 2 kids in 12 months.
