Depends. Are you breastfeeding? If so could be months/years depending how long you feed for. If not, it’ll likely come back in the next few months!

@Lottie I’m not no and Oo wow wasn’t expecting that. Will they more than likely be erratic ?

Took mine 2 years to come back

Mine came back with a vengeance literally a month later lmao x

I had my first at 8 weeks postpartum

@Liv Oo no really , this is what I’m worried about x

With my first bleeding stopped at 6 weeks and period came around 8 weeks x

@Demi I do have endo so mine are typically quite painful and heavy anyway but it came back really quickly and was quite irregular for the first year or so x

Pp bleeding stopped at 6weeks and then period back at 10weeks. It has been very regular ever since! I’m now 15mthspp id say my first one was heavier and now they are lighter than what they were before I was pregnant!

I'm nearly 6 months PP and no sign as of yet. EBF

Stopped bleeding 3 weeks pp , had a weeks break then started my period

@Demi it really depends on you. My periods came back at 6 months and were regular as they were before

My period came back at 8 weeks PP and I breastfeed

I exclusively breast feed and mine came back after two months lol everyone is different

@Demi it’s hard to know. Everyone is different but could be a bit irregular to begin with and then normalise for you!

I got a period almost half a year after giving birth, but i am breastfeeding. And now they've stopped again since I'm pregnant again lol. But mine was erratic, like I'd have one and not have another for a month or two then have another one.

Varies a lot I think, it was 5 weeks for me.

First i bleed for 6 weeks and then got period 2 weeks later. Xx
