Back to menstruation pads: when does it happen?

Sooner or later, your period will come back after your baby is born. When should you expect it?


  • About ten days after giving birth, a "bit" of period occurs. This short bleeding lasts about two days.
  • This should not be confused with the "real" menstruation, which takes six to eight weeks to come back.
  • If you're breastfeeding, it's a little different: your ovulation is delayed by prolactin, a hormone produced during the feeding, so your cycle will resume its normal course afterward.

So i had my first doctors appointment yesterday and my doctor said I’m measuring 8weeks 5 days but my last period was 9weeks ago. What does that mean is there something wrong ? She wants me to return in 2 weeks🥹 #Nervous
