When did u get your period after having your child?

Question

its been almost 3months and i still havent gotten it....and some of my friends that had there babys got theres around 2months....

Answer 1

I breast fed my son and pumped for six months.  My period returned two weeks after I stopped.

Answer 2

If you are breast feeding you might not get it until you start weaning your baby.  For some reason when nursing it causes you to have a few extra months with no period.  If you are not breast feeding you should have got it by the 6th week.

Answer 3

If you are breastfeeding, it could be several months.  I nursed each of my four boys until they were a year old, and I got my period back after about 8 months or so--when they started getting more from solid foods and my body adjusted to that.  That time frame can vary longer or shorter for each person.

Answer 4

If a mom is nursing, her period might not return until after she has weaned the baby.  That's not always the case, though.  Some women don't get their periods up until a year after childbirth.  Totally normal.

I nursed my son til he was 18 months old... my period returned at around 5-6 months postpartum.  I wasn't able to nurse my daughter (born with cleft lip/palate), my period returned at around 5 months.

Answer 5

My daughter is 3.5 months ... and I havent gotten my period yet ... I get spotting here and there ... but not my actual period
