Gee, I don't know if it "takes longer" to get AF w/a c-section. I would have to bet no, it's all the same. I am 9 weeks PP right now and am wondering when I will get my AF. I certainly don't want to be pregnant this soon. I tend to think my dr. would frown against it, ha ha.... Last time around I started trying at 5 months. I got pregnant at 9 mo's but miscarried and got pregnant again after my first AF after miscarriage (11mo's). Now I have a 21mo dd & 9week ds. It's tough at first, but we're getting the hang of things.
Thank you. That's encouraging that you got AF so soon even while breastfeeding. I have not even had my baby yet-I'm only 3 1/2 months pregnant! But I just can't help planning ahead...
With a c-section, does it take longer to get AF?
The less you feed the more your body is going to try to get back on track. Every person is different though. I got my first AF 16 weeks PP and was exclusively bf'ing with my dd and I was ready again too! It's not crazy at all. Did you have a c-section or vaginal? That's the only thing I worry about. I just had my 2nd section and I will want to ttc after a few months also:) (My ds is 9 weeks :) My kids are 19 1/2 mo's apart....
