Mine was 6 weeks. Got my implant on the 3rd day of it

5

I had my son Sept 1st and didnt get my period until November but everybody is different

6

Usually 4-6 weeks but can be as early as 2. Depends on a lot of factors, including breastfeeding

7

Mine were still are abnormal… glad someone can answer your question!!

Different with each C- Section- I had 4, first one came a while after. Last three were pretty normal, 6 weeks or so

10

I think it Deff depends on the person. I had a c section mid dec and didn’t get one til mid feb

11

Took me 6 months to get regular but I had my tubes tied 8 weeks after birth

12

I had 3 c sections but I breastfed exclusively, I didn’t get my period till my kids were about 11 months old

13

I breastfed my baby for a little while after my c section and it took me 6 months to have a cycle. I think it just depends on your body. I have been told breastfeeding makes your body take longer to have a menstrual cycle.

14

Everyone is different I got mine the next month with both my csection

15

Depends if your breastfeeding or not. Usually breastfeeding mom’s can not have a period return until they stop, SOMETIMES. Formula mom’s usually get one 6-8 weeks after birth.

16

I got my period 3-4 mo approx after each c section

17

I head cesareans with all of mine and breastfed exclusively. Mine returned shortly after introducing solids.

18

I had my baby on february 1st and still no period.

19

With my first 6 months, with my second 4 months, with my 3rd 8 months

I breast fed all 3, but my 2nd I dried up at 3 months.

20

Mine started the same day as my C-section

21

I had my csection 10 months ago and i got mine the next month but it was irregular and now im pregnant again …

22

I bled for almost six months because I got on birth control immediately after so it really messed up my period after my C-section

23

I had my second c section Feb 26 I stopped bleeding before I left the hospital and I had a period last week

My first c section I bled for a week and had a period 3 weeks later

My period is more regular after my c section then it was before

24

Mine was 4 weeks both times

25

It all depends on your body every woman’s body is different just it’s not different just because you had a c-section

26

Non breastfeeding in my case, I bled for 6 weeks-ish post partum…then it was a regular cycle the next month. When I was breastfeeding my son, it was about a month after I stopped.

27

It took me 11 months to get mine and I had my daughter May 2nd. I formula feed her as well.

28

I had a terrible one around 5 weeks. Started birth control shortly after and haven’t had one since a year later.

29

Mine started right away just like with my vaginal births!

30

I an 8 mon pp and breastfeeding only had 2 3-day long periods

31

First c section was 8 weeks I think then my last c section was 6 weeks

32

If you breast feed it might not show up right away.

33

Mine took about 2 months but I tried to bf for a little while so that might by why it was so long.

34

Depends if your breastfeeding it can take longer to return. It took mine around a year after my first c section and 15 months after my second c section. I breastfed as well for both my boys

35

I breastfed and still got it at 6 weeks. Been irregular ever since

36

It was 6 weeks with my 2

37

Mine on the 6th week after delivery. Andlasted like 1.5 weeks.
