[nickynoonoo]

hi every1 i gave birth 2 a loveley baby boy 4 weeks ago and just wanted 2 no when you can use tampax do i need 2 wait 6 weeks when ive seen doctor x

Yes, it is recommended that you use pads until after the 6 week check, that way the doctor can see if you have had any infection.

Do you still have the lochia (post natal bleeding) or have you started your period?

[nickynoonoo]

No ive not had my period yet some days i have no blood at all so think i still have lochia.Thanks for your answer only got 2 wait till the 12th ov this month till i see doctor.
