Post partum period..when did you get yours?

Post partum period..when did you get yours?

I am 9 weeks and 2 days post partum and I still haven't started my period. This was my first baby and I  have no clue when I'm supposed to start. I'm not breastfeeding, and  I bled on and off for about 4 weeks after giving birth. At my 6 week checkup everything was fine and the doctor said my period should return within the next 2 weeks(if I hadn't already started) It's been more than 2 weeks and I was just a little concerned. When did you ladies have your first period post partum? I was very regular(every 30 days) before this pregnancy. Thanks for any help...

I got mine 25 days after I weaned DD.  OB said it's normal to get it anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks.

I am 8 weeks post partum and just started mine a few days ago. My milk never came in so I wasnt able to breastfeed, I did try pumping for the first 3 weeks but I could never get more then an ounce.

I'm 9 weeks and just got mine... however I am on the Nuva Ring and just took it out on Friday (after having it in since 6 weeks) so i think that provoked my period.  Now that it's here, I wish it would go away again lol.
