Period?

readyornot12345 · February 2014

Tmi but did anyone start there period by 6 or 7 weeks postpartum. I haven't bled since week 5 but now I have some bright red light blood today. Not sure if its my period or just post partum bleeding starting up again. I also worked out today so that could have done it. Who knows! Wasn't sure what the norm was.

Sounds like it's still PP bleeding due to the workout. If it's light I wouldn't worry too much. I'm bleeding (light) at 10 weeks PP but I've no idea if it's my period or because of my Mirena...thoughts anyone?

My period started out brown, then moved to dark red. Day one was fairly light, I thought it was pp bleeding, but it got heavier day 2 & 3, then tapered off again. I had other period symptoms too: DH needed to break out his period helmet...cramps, headache etc.

I'm on mine. Its like it's always been. Just lasting longer than usual. Just started BC so that might be why.

Mine started at 6 1/2 weeks and was really heavy--way heavier than late post-partum bleeding,

My first PP period came at exactly 7 weeks.

7 weeks here. I assume it was a period because I had cramping that hadn't been there since a couple days past birth. It never completely stopped which confused me but it was down to barely any brown spotting and then got a little heavier with bright red.

I was pissed, too. I'm still EBF. No fair!!!

I started bleeding lightly on Sunday at 9w1d pp. It got heavy yesterday morning and afternoon then it tapered off at night. Now it's back

I don't know if it's my period or not. I am EBF so I thought I wouldn't get it for a while. I have zero period symptoms though. So I don't know what it is!? Also I started the mini pill last Sunday.

I will be 7 weeks tomorrow and I think I started mine today. I got mirena last Wednesday and spotted off and on for a few days, but this is a little bit more and bright red. And I had minor cramping for like 5 minutes today too. I'm also EBF

sad I thought I had a longer break from it too.

My pp bleeding was definitely done by 3 weeks. (TMI, I thought I was spotting again but it was my hemorrhoids, ouch!) Now at 5 weeks, I definitely have my period. Last week I mentioned to my mom that I'm having pms symotoms and I'm getting it. Yesterday, I got it. I've had my usual cravings, weight gain, cramps. I can tell that my body is out of whack still but I'm using it as an indicator that I've ovulated. Sucks because I'm EBF and hate pads! I told DH to buy himself condoms for V-Day.

My PP bleeding stopped at 4 weeks and I started my period at 8 weeks. It sucks. I was hoping it wouldn't start this early since I'm nursing.

When should we worry about not getting our period? I'm going on 10 weeks and haven't gotten mine . I EFF.

I started the mini pill last Monday and wouldn't you know a week later there's my period. I was hoping to get a few months outta pumping but I'm not that lucky lol. What clued me into was cramps and bloat.

I got mine right after my 6wk pp appt. (6.5wks) It started off light but is really heavy and dark red now a wk later.
