How Your Life Had Changed After Giving Birth

As if new mamas don’t have a steep enough learning curve already, one event takes most of us off-guard: that first postpartum period. After what was probably a hiatus of a year or longer, the return of your menstrual cycle isn’t just back to business as usual. In most cases, it’s initially less predictable and stronger than when Aunt Flo used to come calling.

Children are great imitators. So give them something great to imitate.

The good news? By preparing yourself for what is to come, they don’t have to be so intimidating — especially if you also stock your drawer with THINX underwear, made specifically to absorb menstrual flow.

Every pair of THINX undies is created with their signature 4-layer technology that is super-absorbent, moisture-wicking, odor-fighting, and leak-resistant. Translation? You never have to worry about leaks or stains, even when your period is a surprise.

The biggest factor that affects your period’s return is whether or not you are breastfeeding. “If a woman is not breastfeeding, then the first menses usually returns at six weeks postpartum to three months postpartum,” says Elizabeth Sauter, MD, Fellow of The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Among exclusively breastfeeding mamas, Sauter says it can be harder to predict when menstruation will return in full force: It’s rare for your period to return until at least six months postpartum (at which point you’ve probably introduced some solid food to baby’s diet), but it may not return at all until you are done breastfeeding a year or more postpartum.
