I delivered my baby on April 4, 2019 by c section. I'm breastfeeding her from day 1 till now. I got bleeding today. Did my periods start? Many tell periods don't occur while feeding baby. We travelled today by train, and I didn't feed her for more than 8 hrs. I could feel heaviness and pain. After 8 hrs I gave feeding. Or is it normal to get periods while breastfeeding?pls suggest

Your periods would have started and this is normal.sometimes periods might be little irregular and always there is chance for pregnancy,so take proper contraception for family planning.

It is not necessary  that periods will come during feeding. Some times can be pregnant  also so go for pregnancy  test and if negative  then start Ocp cerezette  for lactational Amenorrhoea.
