Did you have a period during breastfeeding?

Question

I’ve started bleeding lightly (old blood then fresh) at 7weeks post c-section (I bled for 2-3weeks after birth) 
Is this normal? When did you bleed during breastfeeding?

Answer

Csection ... stopped bleeding around 3.5 weeks...light period at 4.5 weeks... now heavy period at 7.5 weeks *sob*.... and I'm exclusively pumping :( was hoping to avoid my period for a few months...

Answer

I got my peroid back at 6months post c section while EBF.

Answer

I’m 5 months into exclusively breastfeeding and I haven’t had a period yet but I’ve read everyone is different 💫

Answer

Everyone is different. I didn’t get my period for a few months and then it was very irregular. I still got pregnant during that time though (planned). If you haven’t already and you don’t want to get pregnant again right now, you should get on some sort of birth control.
