Hi Dr
I gave birth on 25 September 2016. This was a forceps delivery
Started off breastfeeding then introduced formula bottle feeds at approximatly 2 months.
My baby takes a breastfeed before bedtime, sometimes during the night for a few minutes until bottle feed is ready and in the morning upon waking up. All these breasfeeds are not long feeds at all
Can you tell me when my periods should start?
Thank you
PERIOD?
Re: PERIOD?
There is great variation in when periods return related to breastfeeding. There are really no general rules as some women menstruate regularly after 6 weeks; others may not for 12-18 months after stopping breastfeeding. If you are concerned, see your doctor.
