Morning after pill, postpartum 6 weeks... :-(

Hi ladies, has anyone been in a similar situation and can share their experience with me please?

I am 6 weeks post partum, condom came off during sex and we didn't notice until... Afterwards. I took the morning after pill this morning as we really don't want to risk another pregnancy so soon, but it's really frazzled my mind.

My period hasn't returned yet since baby was born, I don't think I've ovulated yet either though (I normally know my body and cycles really well, I feel pain when I ovulate which I haven't yet, and no ewcm yet either)

I'm stressing because a. synthetic hormones usually make me feel like crap, b. I genuinely have no idea where I am with my cycle and how long it now will be before my period returns and c. I have used ellaone in the past and it didn't work, the baby was very much wanted once we found out I was pregnant but sadly I had a miscarriage. I've always blamed myself and the ellaone pill for that. I can't face the same happening again.

Anyone taken it before periods returning that can share their experience please? X

I can’t share my experience but I just wanted to say I am in the same boat. I took Ella One at 4 weeks 6 days post partum after a c section. That was Weds. I’m bleeding now and I assume it is because of the tablet. My wound is red and sore and now I’m also worried. So I just wanted to say you are not alone.
