3 Months Post Pregnancy, Not Breastfeeding NO PERIOD

3 months ago, I gave birth to twin girls through a c-section. I had my 6 week duration of post baby bleeding but after that, no period. I am not breast feeding, nor have I, with the twins at least. I haven't been exercising nor am I very stressed, even given that I now have twin girls and an almost 2 year old boy. I have however, gained a little weight and cramp around the times my period is "supposed" to come. I have taken 2 at home tests thus far, both coming out negative. I have had only protected sex, but there still might be a chance the condom was ripped somewhere and my husband and i didn't know. I am to go to the doctor this coming monday for a colposcopy and will talk with my doctor about it then, but I wanted to know if anyone else had this problem or something like it and could, in a way, prepare me for my next visit? Thanks so much!Undecided

three months is a very short time to wait for your period after a full term pregnancy (or even less than  full term).

It took several months to prepare your body for the twins - allow yourself some time to recuperate before stressing about the no period thing. Yes, it is probably better to use protection (especially after a c-section where another pregnancy is less advisable right now), but take the time.

it could be just a stress after twin delivery OR your endometrium was damaged during metrorrhagia (if instruments were used) - discover more below:

How Can I Get Rid of This Yeast Infection?

QUESTION Dear Midwife, I have had a yeast infection throughout my entire pregnancy. My doctor has tested me for STD's and all are negative. He has prescribed metro gel to me. I have used this every few months. I am now on my 32 week and am using this prescription every other week. Is there something stronger I can use or something I can change or do different to help? ANSWER Metrogel will not cure a yeast infection, it's for a bacterial infection and can actually cause a yeast infection. Have you tried Diflucan (the yeast pill)? There are also over the counter yeast preparations and a heavy duty vaginal cream (Terazol) that might be appropriate. If all these fail, borax washes help some women and the yeast can be cultured to see what will kill it. Other things you can do for yourself include eliminating sugars as much as possible (no soda or juices for sure, only two fruits and two dairies per day) and eating more vegetables and proteins. Good luck! -- Cynthia, CNM. PhD. Send Page To a Friend
