When the first period returns depends upon several factors: how frequently the baby is nursing, how often the baby is supplemented with bottles, whether or not the baby takes a pacifier, how long the baby is sleeping at night, whether or not solids have been introduced, and the mother's own individual body chemistry and the way it responds to hormonal influences associated with breastfeeding. Any time the stimulation to the breast is decreased, especially at night, menstruation is likely to return soon after.

With my daughter - breastfeed consistantly (didn't supplement with formula) it was year.
With my other two I supplemented - menstrated at 3 months

I'm assuming you're asking how long before you get your period after having a baby?
If yes-varies. Some women have it right after if they deliver vaginally and until their milk comes in for breastfeeding.
C-section moms may take a day or two longer before the right hormones kick in.
Either way, if you are breastfeeding-doctors say not as long as you are breastfeeding but that's not always true either. (I breastfed for two months and still got mine.) That's why women end up pregnant while breastfeeding.
It'll come...if you're not breastfeeding and haven't gotten it in a week, call your OB/GYN- That could be serious.
(congrats on the little one)

If you're breat feeding, later. If you're not, sooner. It's a delicate balance, and your first one after the baby will be huge, heavy, and long.

It depends. If you are breastfeeding, you may not get it for months.
