Periods

[1sttimemum]

Ok so Caitlyn is 6 weeks on monday and im wondering when im likely to expect my first period

 

[LisaJ1986]

Angel is nearly 9 weeks and i still haven't had 1. May have something to do with BF.
And i had my very 1st depo injection last Tuesday. Dunno if that might affect it. GP never told me.

with emily, i beled for 6+ weeks after wards, and then about 2 weeks after that i got my first AF

With hannah ik bled for about 3-4 weeks afterwards, but didnt have a period . . . found out about 2-3 months later i was preggers.

 

[1sttimemum]

I bled for about 2 and half weeks afterwards - not had a period yet and have done the deed once with a durex extra safe condom lol

 

[Lola's Mummy]

We're BF so mine took longer

 

[Sherlock]

I had what I can only think (and GP agrees as I stopped bleeding after birth in under a week and had nothing since) was a period a few days back. 4 weeks since LO arrived. Which as my cycle is short, 21-24 days is normal for me, would fit. Was bang on 23 days

As I'm BF'ing I was blooming surprised this happened, but GP said it is not unheard of. Here was me thinking I'd get a break from them for a while longer. Might well be I don't get another one till I stop BF'ing, but then I might get one in 3 weeks time

I clicked the wrong one - I started off breastfeeding until LO was 6 weeks. I didn't get my period until she was 12 weeks.

I bled for 2 weeks after then got my 1st AF 6 weeks after they were born.

I'm not BF and got mine yesterday for the first time, a day short of 9 weeks after she was born.

I bottle fed James from a week old and got my first period when he was around 5 weeks

im breastfeeding this time. Logan is now 7 weeks old and period hasnt appeared yet. Hoping it might stay away for a few months

i still havent had my first period and my daughter's just had her first birthday! i BF exclusively for 6 months, and stopped BFing when she was 8 months old. i can still get a miniscule drop of clear liquid out of one nipple (sorry tmi!) so i presume iv still got post-pregnancy hormones still in my body delaying my period.

 

[Emma58]

I got mine on Friday 8 weeks and 1 day after Sam was born.

I finished bleeding around 5 weeks and i'm bottle feeding.

 

[Melanie]

Ididnt get one until 13 months!

 

[purple13]

bf-ing and no period yet long may it continue
