This may sound silly!

But i got my first period after my baby was born 30 days ago!
Is the following period supposed to be exact if you were normal before your baby was born? or could i still be irregular for a few months?

im sorry if this had been asked! it seems from what i hear are things go back to normal!

You can be irregular for several months after giving birth. I would say give it a few months, and if it still concerns you, see your doctor. Are you on any type of birth control? This can also affect your cycles.
