    Red face Confused! Levlen and AF

    My lochia stopped completely 5 wks after birth and my dr told me i didnt have to wait for AF to come back that i could just start taking the pill, so i started taking it 12 days ago and i still have 5 to take before i reach the white (active?) ones and 7 before i get to the red section of the packet, i thought this is supposed to be when my AF should start but i noticed that i am bleeding lightly this morning (only when wiping sorry TMI ) Is this normal or should i maybe see a midwife or my gp about it? Im confused now!!

    TIA

    Hi Tia
    Have you missed any pills during the month? When I was on the pill if I missed one I would start a light bleed.
    Other than that I'm not sure, it's a bit strange the doctor said you didn't have to wait to start with af, every time I've started the pill I've been told to wait for my next af.
    Sorry I can't be of much help

    Janine= I missed one pill on sunday so maybe thats why.
    I wanted to wait for AF and i was going to anyway
    but DH was getting impatient and wanted me to
    get them in my system



    I dont know what pill to take tonight...Should i continue as i am
    or start taking the other ones in the red section or just stop
    and wait for a normal AF and then start taking them again?
