Mums who breastfeed all the time usually don't menstruate again until they stop nursing. They may also start menstruating if they stop nursing partially, especially at night. Mums who bottle-feed, or do a combination of breastfeeding and bottle feeding, may get their menstruation as soon as five weeks after giving birth. When mums breastfeed full-time, the body produces more prolactin — which is the hormone that helps you produce milk for your baby. That hormone also stops your menstruation from coming. Hope this helps! 🙂
It varies for individual. I am 8.5m PP, still breastfeeding (EP) and yet to have my period back. 😊 Some bf mummies have said to not have their period until 18M PP while some got it back as soon as they ended ML.
I had a c sect breastfed for 13 months , first period came at around 6m postpartum. Don’t worry mama , everyone is different (: it will eventually return don’t stress 😀
hi mummy! there is no right or wrong time for your menses to resume, it can be different for everyone. i am fully bfeeding but i had my menses back just 6 weeks postpartum.
Mine came back after 9 months nearly!! I stopped breastfeeding at 7 months and had csection. Usually they say it returns shortly after stopping breastfeeding
My menstruation restarted after 7 months of giving birth and also when I stopped breast feeding so don’t worry it’s different for different people.
It’s quite normal. The cycle differs when you exclusively breastfeed. I got mine after 8months of giving birth.
i had c-sec and breastfeed. my 1st period came after 6m..
