It all depends on you and your body. Some
people 6 weeks. Some people more or less.

I don't know if it's a myth, but I heard
that while you breastfeed you don't have
your period. Not sure if it's true
though.

I have known people not to have their
period while they were nursing. After, I
had my 2 girls I have a period it seemed
like forever, but then a few weeks later
it was normal again.

I've nursed two babies for a year each.
With my first baby I got my period after a
few months. But with my last one I
didn't get it for about 10 months.

Are you on bc? Why wouldn't you think
you were pregnant? People have gotten
pregnant before ever getting their period
post partum. B/c you ovulate first.
Anyway, be careful girl. It only takes
one time to get preg. Get some bc, use
condoms, something.

I'm breastfeeding right now only had my
period for the 2 days I was in the
hospital I still have yet to have one.
But it all depends on your body normally
its 6 weeks.
Bori I would take a test if I were you.

you are most fertile right after having a
baby, not to alarm youeither but it is
dangerous to you and the fetus, to get
pregnant right away again.

No Period...

:?: I had my son 11 months ago, dec 5th,
and I had I period that lasted 2 days in
june, and havent had one since. When I
had my son, the doctors messed up and
thought I was dilated more than I was, and
I had to have a c-section bc they gave me
drugs to make me have him, and I wasnt
ready... Idk if after having a c section
if it could make you take longer to get a
period... I wasnt planning on having one,
so I never found out about it. If anyone
knows, please write... Thanks!

Help

I really need advise I wrote before and
nobody answered. I went home to visit and
ended up having sex with my ex. The last
time we had sex I started my period and we
used a condom. Also every time before the
last we used a condom. When I came back
from vacation I slept with my boyfriend
(that I am currently with now) unprotected
and now I am 5 weeks pregnant. Should I
even worry about who the father is?

Hey
from the day I left the hospital I had a
period six weeks straight I ended up
having a infection in my uterus once I
took antibiotics I was fine and finally
got a break from pads lol!!! Most books
say you can get you period after birth
anywhere from 3-12 weeks all depends your
health and if your breastfeeding!!

Period After Pregnancy/breastfeeding

:d here's some medically verified info
for you. My doctor guaranteed me that if
I breastfeed for the first year after my
little one is born then I will not have to
worry about getting pregnant in that year.
I was told that breast feeding acts as a
sort of natural birth control. It's not
as effective after that but for the first
year i'm safe! Yet another benefit to
breast feeding!

For the breastfeeding, yes it can act as
b/c but is not exactly guaranteed, i'd
still get b/c. I breastfed for about 1
1/2 motnhs and got my period when my son
was about 2-2 1/2 months when I went on
bc.

Thanks for the tip. Good info about the
back up birth control. I'm just going to
rough it because i'm one of those rare
people that doesn't respond well to birth
control. The hormones in it exacerbate
my depression and actually make me worse.
