Hi there,

I had a c section 29 days ago - I BF for two weeks and then switched to FF (so approx. two weeks ago).

My lochia went through the usual stages, most recently a thickish, pinkish mucous. My internal scar remains sore/bruised feeling.

Today I think I have my period - the world wide Internet of facts suggests this shouldn't happen for another couple of weeks.

Does anyone have any experience with similar?

(of course I'm secretly terrified that it's actually internal bleeding and I'm about to drop down dead).

Nope.
With all my sections my period cane back smack on 28 days.
My periods have always been spot on but I was hoping for a post partum hiatus but sadly not.
As long as it's not I usually heavy I'm sure you will be fine.

Damn us and our regular periods.

I've had a precisely 29 day cycle for the past 25 years, I was hoping for a hiatus too. Boo!

Thank you for the reassurance. I'll keep an eye on it.
