It's been 8 weeks since I gave birth, I am bottle feeding , but still haven't gotten my period is this normal?

Question

I'm scared because I don't have cramps or feel like my period is coming.....

Answer 1

Totally normal. It can take several months for your cycle to return to normal. Don't worry about it, but make sure you use protection if you don't want another baby yet. You will ovulate before you have your first period!!

Answer 2

I assume you have already passed the lochia.  ot getting your period soon after giving birth is perfectly normal.  It can take up to three months or more before your regular period comes back.  Don't worry too much.

Answer 3

if you've not had unprotected s*x i'd not worry too much... i had a period 6 weeks after  each of my 3  births but some don't have a period for a few months..

Answer 4

It is normal to breastfeed a baby.

Answer 5

first thing is talk to your dr....some women don't start their periods for up to about 3 months after they give birth...

each of us is different.

a phone call to your dr. can releave your stress.

Answer 6

it can take a while to have all your hormones get back to normal. but you may be ovulating so have protected s*x if you don't want another one soon.

Answer 7

What do you mean your not bleeding? Doesn't everyone bleed after child birth for 6 wks?

Answer 8

If you went to your 6 week appointment and the doctor found nothing wrong then you should be fine just give it a little more time. All women are different I would not worry.
