First period after birth ?

Jennifer

I gave birth 8 weeks ago. I have had 2 other kids I can’t remember when I got my first period though afterwards. I’m only worried because my husband and I had a lot of unprotected sex when I got the go ahead to start being active again. I was about 5 weeks when my doctor said I was good. He did pull out but I worry because I have been getting early pregnancy symptoms?? I am going to get a test in the morning. I am hoping this is all just me worried. I am getting a IUD next month. I couldn’t decide at first which BC to go with. I finally decided on the IUD and made a appointment. I’m just nervous being stupid I’ve gotten pregnant again. For me personally that would be a lot. I have 3 kids and it’s hard enough. So just wondering about when after giving birth did your period return. I don’t breastfeed and the only weird thing was one day I had a lot of cramping and put on a pad. I thought it was my period. It was actually just very light bloody discharge this happened last week. An was all I had stopped bleeding 2 weeks prior fully. So I then got afraid it was implantation bleeding.
