Heal faster?
Are there women who have a shorter postpartum or they are powering thru everything just like the rest of moms post-birth? |
Being pregnant again at your 6 week checkup is a huge no no! Please don’t consider this.
I didn’t bleed for the full six weeks with either child. |
At my 7 week postpartum appointment I didn't even get the all clear for sex, was certainly not ovulating. First kid I bled 2 months, 2nd was shorter |
I have no idea but I automatically side eye their husbands. |
+1 Majorly. |
Yuuuuup I just know they’re toxic |
I was no longer bleeding at my 6 week check up, but no way could I have gotten pregnant. I couldn't have sex pain-free until closer to 6 months post partum. |
I honestly think most women (but very importantly not all!) who shows up pregnant to the six week appointment (which means sex less than 4.5 weeks postpartum) are victims of marital rape. |

I got my period 6 weeks post partum after a C-section that left a very bad isthmocele. It was the only pregnancy of 3 where I did not have PPD. |
I’ve never bled the whole 6 weeks. I’ve also been very fortunate to have easy recoveries. I wasn’t interested in having sex before 6 weeks, but I guess my recoveries were easy enough that I can imagine it. Do not recommend, of course! |
At 25 I had zero tearing from vaginal birth. We had protected sex pretty early because the hormones. I had my first period at 6 weeks post partum which means I ovulated at 4 weeks post partum despite breastfeeding around the clock.
As I've aged and had more children I realize that my fertility and hormones absolutely do not play by the rules. Lupron and BC did not stop my body from ovulating. My husband's Mom was pregnant at her 8 week check up and him & his brother at 10 months apart after a C section. To be fair, most physicians don't actually think it's possible. So I don't know that they warn this enough. |

I was pregnant 6 weeks after my second c section. Oops. All was fine though. |
I agree. My post partum hormones gave me the libido of a teenage boy. DH would breathe on me and I would be ready to jump his bones. I was so annoyed by how adamant he was about waiting for the all clear even though I'd stopped bleeding and felt fine fairly quickly. |
