Postpartum and first period

When should I “expect” my first period after pregnancy? I’m not even a week postpartum yet though. I’m just curious. It probably differs for everyone. Also, will I be able to use tampons or will I have to stick to pads for the first one? I will ask my OB when I have my first postpartum appointment but thought I’d ask here too😂
