Period?!

[Kimberlee_20]

Alright WHEN is my period supposed to come back again?! I haven't had it yet and I'm starting to panic, how BAD would that be?!

Yeah it's a progesterone only pill so it's safe while breastfeeding, it's a pain though cause you have to be uber careful about taking it at the same time everyday, I just want my IUD already!!! lol

what's the mini pill?? just a form of BC or what? haha

[GRose]

I am starting the mini pill tomorrow cause my OB doesnt want to put my IUD in until I am 12 weeks post pardum so I'm sure I will get mine period a couple weeks :(

I'm not breastfeeding anymore, due to Dameon getting thrush, and I just got what I think is my period last night. I completely stopped bleeding for about 2.5 weeks, and had yellow discharge, then last night I started getting pink in my discharge, and now it's a red flow, but it doesn't come out when I go to the bathroom, it's just on my pads. I'm crampy like my period though!

With my first son I didnt get a period until I stopped breastfeeding, which was 9 months.  They say exclusive breast feeding is a form of birth control, but I would still use contraception.

I didn't get mine for 6 months after having Noah, my sisters didn't come for 9 months after having her baby. Some women dont get one until they are done breastfeeding.

i haven't had mine yet either.  i gave birth on 7/4.  i figured that was normal because i'm breastfeeding/pumping.

My period just ended, I wasn't expecting it so soon since I'm breastfeeding but it came last week. So don't freak out it can take a long time to start up again.

who knows?!  Some women get it faster than others.  I think breastfeeding delays it more.  I have a friend that went bout 6 months without a period after delivery.
