Re: how long did it take to get your period after giving birth?
I think I may have gotten something at 6 weeks pp, but it was only for one day. I am BF mostly and supplementing so I have no idea when I will get one. I get cramps a lot and I think I am going to start, but nothing yet.

Re: how long did it take to get your period after giving birth?
Ds was ebf and af came at 6 months. My sister bf all 3 kids and it didn't come until 2 weeks after she completely weaned. So she didn't get it until the were 18 months old. SO it depends on the person.
