Seemed slightly heavier than normal but not outrageously so, and still just lasted 5 days, which is typical for me. cascademom on "What was your first AF postpartum like?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-first-af-postpartum-like#post-1719930 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 22:07:59 +0000 cascademom 1719930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Mine came back while on the mini pill about 6 weeks pp. On the mini pill, I got my period every two weeks. It was a decent flow, not horrible.

I previously had heavy periods but this was insane. Then the next one was super light (like just enough to need a tampon). On my third and it's medium. So, my guess is there are no rules and AF likes to keep us on our toes!

I wonder what it was though. I've never spotted a day in my life!

Maybe it was a real AF but even pre-baby it was 4-5 days long. I guess time will tell! travellingbee on "What was your first AF postpartum like?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-first-af-postpartum-like#post-1719303 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 17:00:29 +0000 travellingbee 1719303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I think it can be all over the place still be normal. Mine was normal and regular when it came back at 9 months PP- for the first three months anyway and then it went wacky after I weaned.

DS is 12m and still nurses 3x/day. I got what I thought was AF on Friday, but it only lasted a day and it was super light. So I'm guessing that wasn't it since I was expecting it to be a lot heavier. Now I'm wondering what's going on with my body??
