We're spacing kids out by several years and I would love to wake up 1x a night in exchange for not having my period for a while longer. LO is 8 months and no sign of it yet (or of her STTN either). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947356 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 20:13:48 +0000 erinpye 947356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>STTN had nothing to do with it for me- mine didn't return until a couple of months after I weaned, at 10.5 months PP, even though DD had been STTN for months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947224 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 19:13:01 +0000 chopsuey 947224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With dd I got mine back at 7 months pp. she stated sttn around 2 months old too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947221 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 19:12:10 +0000 chopsuey 947221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's been about 5 months since DS started sttn!

It returned at 2 years pp. (I've never had any health issues and have a totally normal cycle now.) LO was still nursing 1x at night at that point, for like 5 minutes total. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947202 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 19:03:23 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 947202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Noelle started STTN by 6 months, but AF didn't return until she was 13 months (2 months after we weaned). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947201 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 19:02:54 +0000 rachiecakes 947201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>around same time 9/9.5 months PP </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947196 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 18:59:50 +0000 Mrs. Bee 947196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With Charlie it came back 1 months after I weaned so at 11 months. It came back at 16 months with Olive though I was still nursing. Maybe because that's when age started sttn. Charlie sttn at 4.5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947190 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 18:56:41 +0000 DillonLion 947190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has been STTN since 6 weeks.

Anyway she is back to sttn and no period yet. She is 9 months next week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-947097 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 18:28:32 +0000 sorrycharlie 947097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine back 7 weeks postpartum nursing round the clock.

It seems like its going well because she had some positive OPKs recently so perhaps you could look into that to help get things going. So excited to follow your journey for baby #2!!! It will be nice to ttc while loving on a sweet little one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-944531 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 23:00:55 +0000 lemondrop 944531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me it was more that he started eating more real food at 10 months and nursing progressively less, not so much STTN- he's been very hit and miss with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-944519 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 22:52:29 +0000 HLK208 944519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>9 months pp with DD (she wasn't STTN) and 11 with DS (also was not STTN)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-944517 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 22:51:03 +0000 BlueWolverine 944517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO started STTN at 3/4 mo and AF just returned at 6 mo pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-944470 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 22:25:55 +0000 kodybear 944470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO started STTN at 2 months and AF came back at 7 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-your-lo-started-sttn-did-af-return#post-944445 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 22:17:53 +0000 joyjoy 944445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD started sleeping over 6 hours around 2 months, then the full 12+ hours an 2.5.
