I also had my bby on the 11th and im not bleeding on the pad but only when I go to the Restroom. And im sick and tired of the pad too lol  of what I know if u breastfeed ur bleeding stops faster than when u only do formula, it helps ur uterus to get back to its normal size faster and ur belly won't stay hanging :-D.. it actually helps ur body alot. Im saying it for experience it helps me alot..

It has nothing to do with breastfeeding so dont let that deter you from breastfeeding.  All women will have postpartum bleeding for 2 to 6 weeks after having a baby. Just part of the deal unfortunately.

After the 3 weeks I didn't get a period because I was breastfeeding and on the depo. I'm more than ready to be done too. I hate having my period and REALLY hate having to wear pads.

My bub was born on the 4th and I'm still getting a bit of bleeding. They say it can last up to 6 weeks. I don't think its classed as a period.

My son was born on the 11th & I've just now stopped bleeding.  I read that the more active you are, it may prolong your bleeding.  Now I get to wait & see when my actual period is going to show up.  That's the really annoying part, waiting for your body to get back on cycle.  LOL
