Would this be my period?

Question

I am 1 month postpartum I bled about 2 weeks after birth and this morning i notice bleeding and some cramping like a period. So would this be my period? I know this sounds like a dumb question but this is my first baby so idk when your period comes back. I have noticed some spotting this past week too. And also did you give your baby a bath everyday or 2 - 3 times a week? Thank you in advance!! ❤️

Answer

Technically by definition, any bleeding within 6 weeks of giving birth is considered postpartum bleeding. However, it is possible to ovulate and have a period during that time as well, so it's possible

Answer

2-3 times a week when they were newborn. Every day after like 5 months..

Answer

It’s hard to say if it’s your period or not because anything before 6w pp is considered pp bleeding. 
Bath time is going to vary between households and your baby. 
I bathe 1-2 times a week because my kids skin get so dry if they bathe too often. I do give them a bath as needed in between (BLW is messy and poop happens lol)

Answer

Your period is suppose to comeback after about 6 weeks after your baby is born. Cramping was the first thing that got me when after I gave birth.
