Wanted to ask the bottle feeding mothers-
how long after you had your baby did you get your period?

i couldnt tell to be honest when my first one was, because i had a bad episiotomy, my girl was 9lbs 3 oz, but i think i noticed mine around 2 months or so.

5 weeks. It was odd - went for a day, then off a day, then back a day. Doc said that is normal for the few periods.

I was 8 weeks I think. I bleed for 6 weeks after birth so it's possible there could have been one before that ran into the bleeding.

Thanks for all your replies.

Im not sure if i have had a period, my baby is 9 weeks old.

I had after birth bleeding for over 5 weeks then after that if i went on car journeys i would have bleeding for a day or two and thats how its been like. Doctor said that it may be retained products that i have been having.

I just want to get back to a normal cycle where i know when to expect my periods if you know what i mean.

I had a c-section so would that make a difference?
