post partum return of menses
by lala1475, Aug 27, 2007 03:16PM
When is the norm for the return of your period? I had a baby June 29th. I have heard everything from 6 to 7 to 8 or 9 weeks. I am going on my 9th week and am starting to worry. My husband and I did have intercourse over a week ago but with protection. Would a store bought pregnancy test be accurate right now?
My post partum bleeding didn't subside until about 3 weeks ago though, would this play a role? Please put my mind at ease!!!

That depends on a lot of things. Are you breastfeeding right now? My period did not come back until the 16th week post partum (but I was breastfeeding).

everybody's body is different. Some get it as early as 7 weeks post partum, some don't until 12 or so weeks. I don't think there is a chance of pregnancy if you had protected sex.

does anyone think a home pregnancy test will work if it has only been a week?
