no period after c-section Posted: 07-21-08 09:18am
I had my second child on June 1st via
c-section. She was born five weeks
premature. I am not breastfeeding and i
still haven't had my first period since
having her. I bleed for two weeks stopped
for a couple of days then bleed again for
another week after having her. Does it
take longer to get your period back after
you have a c-section than a vaginal
delivery? My breasts feel like they are
growing but are not tender or swollen. I
have been having cramps on and off and my
lower back has been hurting me. Also my
normal discharge as decreased a lot. I
know that it does after you give birth but
i only have a little after i wipe when i
go to the bathroom and its very dry down
there. I didn't experience this with my
first. I want to start birthcontrol but i
don't know if i can since i didn't have my
period yet. Are all these things normal
after a c-section or should i talk to my
doctor about not having my period? I
don't think i could be pregnant again
because me and the hubby didn't have sex
but we did fool around and he ejaculated
near my butt not my vagina. Anyones
advice will be helpfull. thanks
