Now at 5 months PP I still haven't had a real period (woohoo!!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-264398 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 09:34:30 +0000 Mrsbells 264398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone. I just wish I would get a complete break from having periods, rather than being surprised by it every now and then </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-263694 Sun, 19 Aug 2012 09:45:03 +0000 winniebee 263694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought I had it around 7 weeks or so but it was just spotting. I started mini pill around week 11 and spotted a few days then. But now I'm 13 weeks PP and no sign of AF and I'm EBF.</p> <p>My sister got hers at 12 weeks with one and my best friend got it at 6 weeks post partum and then had wonky periods for almost a year until she got preg with #2. Both were EBF. Unfortunately I think anything and everything is *normal*. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-263559 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 22:16:03 +0000 sulli301 263559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my period when LO was 7 months old &amp; she was EBF for 6 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-263129 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 02:06:51 +0000 littleveesmommy 263129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got it when I was 4 months pp while EBF and felt so ripped off cause I thought that would keep it away until I weaned, but I started the mini pill a week after and haven't gotten my period again since. Either it was a fluke or the mini pill is keeping it away, although I read missing periods is not common with thr mini pill. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-262837 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 16:30:29 +0000 SAHM0811 262837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>13 months postpartum, bf'ing 3-4x/day and still no period!

My mom didn't get hers until she stopped BFing entirely, usually around 18 mos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-262732 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 15:03:42 +0000 MamaBehr 262732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't get it at all while breastfeeding, but I also had an IUD. I didn't get my period again until my LO was one and the IUD was out. With my second baby, who is six months old, I still haven't gotten it. I'm not breastfeeding. I would be worried except the OBGYN did a pregnancy test (like a week ago), so I'm hoping it is just the Pill. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-262672 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 14:23:55 +0000 littlek 262672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine 10 weeks postpartum. What a bummer, I thought it would get delayed because I was breastfeeding. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-262622 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:49:48 +0000 BananaPancakes 262622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my first one 7 weeks postpartum and then every other week until week 13. Now it seems to be evening out and hopefully it'll be a little more regular. I'm on the mini pill. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-262609 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:38:39 +0000 runsyellowlites 262609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 4 mths pp ebf and haven't had any sign of af yet. I've hear it's totally normal to get it back full force or even just here &amp; there. I'm hoping she stays away for a loooooooong time! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/af-and-breastfeeding#post-262605 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:36:35 +0000 Mrsbells 262605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>While breastfeeding did you get regular periods? I am 4 months post c-section and 2 months ago I thought I had my period but its been all over theplace since then, Sometimes I'll be spotting or just skip a period altogether. I spoke to my OB's office and they said this was normal. Did you have this </p>
