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
