I'm six weeks tomorrow.

IT WON'T STOP. AAARRRGGGHHH.

[disappointedkittens]

After 5 weeks. It stopped for a few days at 3 weeks but picked up again week 4

[kristie]

Did you have a c-section or vaginal? Sorry, I don't remember. The first time it was 8 weeks for me, but I had internal tearing. This time five weeks.

It was 3 or 4 months. I EBFed and I got the shaft.

Oh, man.

I didn't even know this could happen.

Perhaps I should invest in more pads.

Vaginal.

[janiejones]

9-10 weeks.

I was c-section, after pushing 3.5 hours.

I also EBF'd.

[dizzydee]

I was still bleeding at my 6 week post appt and I had a csection. I'm breastfeeding. I stopped at about 7-8 weeks. I got what I thought was my period at 12 weeks, I bled for 4 days, but no cramping or anything else. I haven't had any since, he's 23 weeks old.

[iamgrace]

I bled on and off until maybe 7 weeks. I would think it had ended and then, nope. Back to gigantor pads. Pp bleeding is the worst.

[JayhawkGirl]

11 wks, csection. I am so over it. And pads.

Eta: nursing too

[justcallmekhaleesi]

6 weeks. Then I started my first PP period at 9 weeks. I was so annoyed. I had hoped EBFing would give me a little more time than that. :/

[thebreakfastclub]

5 weeks, c-section, 0% nursing

[Sloane]

8 full weeks, 10 weeks of random spotting. C-section and EBF.

[chickenlittle]

It fully stopped about 9 weeks after my vaginal delivery. I only BF for 2 weeks of that.

Honestly, that was the worst part of postpartum recovery for me. It lasted forever. Pads suck.

[karinothing]

I can't remember exactly but I think I went to the zoo at 8 weeks and it had been done for a while. I am going with 5-6? Vaginal and EBF.

[Jalapeñomel]

2 weeks out

[nursewife]

It took at least 6 weeks. It felt like forever. I thought that since I had a csection it might not be as long. I was wrong. So wrong. 

[starlily]

I think about 5 weeks out, but then my period returned about 4 weeks after that.

[cville]

3 weeks. But those three weeks were a horrific nightmare. I had to take an iron supplement.

[BaliHai]

3 weeks. First pp period was 6 weeks on the nose.

[thinkofthesoldiers]

Both my kids were c/s babies.

The first was a nightmare. I stopped bleeding about 10 weeks after.

The second, I had WAY better doctors and stopped about 3 weeks after, and it was pretty minimal. Nothing like the bloodbath of #1.

[wannabe]

I want to say like 6-8 weeks. But then I didn't get my period back until much later...like she was almost a year old.

[psychmom]

For-fucking-ever. Around 8 or 9 weeks.

DS was 17 months before i got my first pp period.

[osulori]

I thought I was done at 4 weeks pp. Then it came back around 7 weeks pp, but only lasted a week and has been gone since. Vaginal and EBF here.

[Deleted]

1st- 2 weeks
2nd- 8-10 weeks. A long time. It would stop for a day or two, then start up again for another week. It was annoying.

[zeewifeandmama]

8 weeks, both times

[imhischeeseburger]

Two weeks this time. I'm hoping the bleeding doesn't come back. It's been 3 days so far so good.

[MrsAxilla]

I spotted once or twice after 6 weeks, but most of the bleeding stopped around 4. No period yet five months out.

[tdk2]

10 weeks both times. Reduced around 8.
Still had some addl fun for weeks on and off after.

Seriously, pregnancy sucks.
