Tampons at 3 1/2 weeks PP?
So my son is just over 3 weeks old and I stopped bleeding last week after my vaginal delivery. Today AF showed up, can I wear a tampon??? I hate pads with everything I have.
I have not done any heavy lifting, DH has been making sure of that. The heaviest thing I can lift is our baby. I can't even bring laundry downstairs.
I guess I will just stick it out with pads for now. They are just so uncomfortable is all.

I was told not to stick anything in my vagina for at least 6 weeks including tampons
This is probably not your period, and no, you shouldn't use tampons for post partum bleeding.
Sorry, having babies is messy business. :( If you have any questions, call your doctor's office and talk to a nurse in the morning, but at this time you will just further aggravate things if you use a tampon.
Have you overextended yourself, and lifted heavy things in the last day or so? That will cause post partum bleeding to resume.
