Menustral period after baby ??

My son was born jan 21 I stopped bleeding a few weeks ago.. How long after until you have your first period? Just a little worried since I has unprotected sex twice with my hubby pulling out. Just want to make sure am not pregnant.

You bleed for 2wks after baby. Then your period starts. A month after you stop comes another period. At least that's what every doc told me after my 3 Lil girls. I got pregnant after 2 months with my second baby girl.

I always get my period about 6-8 weeks postpartum. And I exclusively breastfeed.

I would take a test just to be sure even if it is negative I would make an ob appt. Just to be safe like ^^ she said you are extremely fertile after having a baby.... Its been almost 2months so you should be due for a period now!
