 Topic: to soon for AF?
Posted: 21 September 2009 at 4:35pm |
|
My DS is just 7w5d (by C-section if that makes a difference). Looks like AF arrived. Isn't this a Little to soon for that? DS is exclusively BF and I was under the impression that AF would arrive during that time. Is it normal have it be back so quickly?

Yes it is. I got told by my plunket nurse that it is normal to get AF at 6wks and low and behold it arrived at exactly 6wks, so that is proberly what you have, just at 7wks.

i got af at about 3months and it was due a week ago, and no sign of it... so i'm assuming mine is going to be irregular for a while.

Sucks doesnt it!
My SIL bf for 2 years and didnt get AF back until a week after she weaned my nephew. Me, I got it back when Jake was about 3 months.
I dont think having a C-Section makes much of difference tbh, even though they say it can.

Awww poor you! Hope it's just a one-off like some of the others have said. I'm not sure if I had that 6 week AF or not, my PP bleeding finally tapered off at 6 weeks, for one whole day lol, then came back heavy again for another week! Haven't had anymore bleeding since though and DD is 7months now.
