PP bleeding or AF?

tyedyeme12 · January 2014

I am 2 weeks 2 days out and I haven't bled in one week. Now I'm bleeding again. (Bright red) If this is AF, I'm super pissed. Dh is working tonight and I have endometriosis which makes periods completely unbearable. So now I get to have an awful pp period, while taking care of a 2 week old by myself? Is this true? Someone tell me it's just pp bleeding that just forgot to come out last week!

Ok, thank God. I didn't think I was being more active-but probably just didn't notice.

Are you BF? That's crazy for it to come back that fast! I'm hoping it's just a little more PP bleeding because we all deserve a little time before all THAT starts back up again!

I just stopped BFing. I had been pumping, but I haven't pumped since Sunday.

I agree, it's most likely just pp bleeding. Mine has stopped and started I don't even know how many times. First AF usually comes around 5-6 weeks I believe, unless you are breastfeeding. For yours to have started today you would have had to ovulate a couple days after the baby was born which is pretty unlikely.

Right. Whew, I saw blood after so long without it and did not think about this logically. Thank you!

My pp bleeding has stopped and started about 3 times. Just now at 5.5 weeks pp I think it's finally gone for good

I'm 5 weeks PP today and I still have random bright red bleeding. I'm so ready to be free of these nasty pads.

I'm six weeks pp and bright red blood the last few days. I am wondering if it is my period. I'm ebf. With dd period came back at six months.

I just started my effing period and I'm almost 5 weeks pp. I haven't bled in two weeks. Same thing happened with my first baby too, even though I ebf. Grrrrrr.

Since you're only 2 weeks out its likely not your af.
