Hard to remember but about 6 weeks with my first and 8 with my second.
Urgh soo long 🤦🏼♀️was 12ish weeks till it completely stopped, felt never ending!
5-6 weeks both times for me x
Barely 2 weeks after either baby
I was really lucky and it lasted about 10-14 days
About 12 weeks on and off
Mine is still on and off from the 17th if march x
8 weeks after both pregnancies. Then my period came back like a week or 2 later even though I was EBF 😭
2/3 weeks. First period at 5 weeks
4 weeks with my first 5 with my twins. Had a weeks break then got my period after both
On and off for 12 weeks
Around a week and a half of proper bleeding then on and off for another 2 maybe. I was breastfeeding though and lost a lot of blood at birth
It was like 2.5-3 weeks and then I got my first period after baby at 6/7 weeks 🙃

@Jasmin I did have to Google what it was in order to answer 😅
@Jasmin I (OP) was 37 haha
Thank you so much everyone for all your votes & comments! Really interesting how varied the answers are! Very different for everyone. Mine is definitely getting lighter now but not sure when it will finish. Also if it didn't mean what it means... Lochia kinda sounds like it could be a cute baby name 🤣🤣
I had heavy lochia for 3 weeks, then it was like a light period for one week then the week after it came back heavy again
