Well it has been 7 weeks post partum still no sign of AF. I am not breastfeeding so I can't understand why it still isn't here. I mean dh and I have been "ya know" but my question is this, how soon did you get your af after baby?

My dr said to come back in 10 days if I don't get it, 10th was on Sat, I tested on my own said negative (dollar store brand) I called dr and nurse told me to come in and get Beta drawn by Friday if still no show....any input?

I was worried about mine too after having ds because I'd heard so much about when I was "supposed" to expect it. I had him Sept 27th and didn't have my period until early/mid december. So it can be awhile and I don't BF either.

I am 7 weeks PP too and my dr. asked if I had my AF yet (yesterday at office) and I said Nope - and he wasn't concerned. I didn't bother to ask when to expect it - I had so many things on my mind .... but I guess it can be a while... just be really careful - my friend got pregnant 6 weeks pp.... poor thing.

I am formula feeding.
