First period post birth

[Mamab33]

How long after birth? How were you feeding? and was it horrendous with cramps and a queasy feeling?

10 months. EBF. Not horrifically painful but heavy (flooding pads heavy) and crampy. Second was just the same, then I got a bfp

thanks for that. That's one way to deal with them!

DC1 - 4 months, ff, v light.
DC2 - 3 months, ff (bf for 3 weeks), even lighter

Periods have got so light I barely notice them since DC2, but I was 40 when I had her.

I'm just putting off the inevitable really. I can't keep on knocking out babies indefinitely ...

7 weeks and bf! Not fair!

6 months, when I stopped breastfeeding. I don't remember anything remarkable about it.

It was just a normal period but started 12 weeks after the birth even though I was exclusively bf.

10 weeks post baby, stopped BF two weeks in.
No cramps but very heavy. Just had second one and more cramps and even heavier. Woke up in the night bleeding horrendously. Was awful.

I don't really remember when my first post pregnancy period kicked in (even though I stopped breastfeeding after a week, and just expressed until I gradually ran out), but know I bled for over 8 weeks. I remember it was significantly different to my pre pregnancy periods. Heavier, more clots and more pain. It has settled since but they are still different to how they used to be.

19 1/2 weeks (today in fact). I am mainly expressing, the odd bf when dd2 is able to latch (she sleeps through night so I am not expressing during night and havent since about 6/7 weeks) and some formula on instruction of paediatrician.

• haven't

About 10 weeks. Horrific, really heavy, I was exhausted and starving (even more so than normal life with a 10wo!)

The next 2 have been more normal, but given that I'm breastfeeding, I'm not impressed they came back so soon after birth

First period was 14 weeks after birth, im still bf. Second period 7 weeks after. Now 6 weeks and nothing.
Mine were really light - the pain however was unbearable. It felt like I was having contractions all over again!
