Postpartum Bleeding And Depo? Posted: 04-21-06 14:55pm
My first ? Is after the baby is out how
long will I bleed cuz I know after the
baby is born your bleeding the linning
that the baby was in so how long did some
of you bleed?
My other ? Is im going on the shot for
birth control so I know you bleed once the
baby is out and then I will bleed again
for my period so when will I have a period
and how will I know the difference?

After I had my daughter I bled for a week
heavily then lightly for about another
week.
I don't think you will be able to get the
b/c shot till you stop bleeding after the
birth......Not sure though.

I personally don't think you should worry
about getting the shot until you have
healed! I am supprised that your doctor
is going to do this for you. I doubt
that you will be in the mood for nookie!

You can bleed anywhere from 2-6 weeks
after giving birth. Usually the first
week is the worst with clots and such.
Like the other ladies mentioned most women
are not interested in having sex that soon
after child birth vaginal or csection.
You have to wait six weeks after birth to
start on depo-provera. There may be other
birth control options that you can start
sooner, I would talk to your doc.
