1st period after baby

5 replies

I had our 2nd baby 7 weeks ago, am ff but no sign of period yet.
I am a bit concerned because me and dp got a bit carried away a few times and used the 'pull-out' method instead of condoms (stupid, I know)
After ds1 was born, I had a period at 5 weeks, so should I be worried or is it normal to wait over 6 weeks if not bf?

Thanks korma I have heard that you are most fertile after having a baby but then also heard that nature has a way of making sure we don't get pregnant straight after, but my aunt had babies 11 months apart.
Just our luck to have 3 babies in under 2 years.

I think I will do a test, just to reassure myself. Like you say, small chance but if I keep stressing about it, it'll hold off period anyway.
