Post birth periods

1 reply

Toby is now 6 months old and I breastfed until he was 10 weeks old. I had my first post birth period in August, which to me seemed normal. However, I had a bleed on Sunday which I thought was the start of my period but I haven't had any more bleeding since.

Anyone know whether this is normal or whether I should be going to the GP?

You sometimes get a small bleed when you are ovulating for the first time. Wait 2 weeks if it has stopped and you are not in any pain. see if you get a proper period.

Are you breastfeeding? It oftern takes a while for your body to get back into a proper cycle. (Even if you are not BF)
