The length and flow and all that was fairly normal to what I was pre preg, but the length of my cycle was wonky until about June/July which was 12 months PP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810813 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:58:39 +0000 Mamaof2 1810813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DS I got it back at 10 months and they were just starting to get normal at 20 months and then I got preg.</p> <p>With DD - got my period back when she was 7 months and she is now 3.5 and they are still wonky - 24-32 days - it sucks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810799 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:39:51 +0000 illumina 1810799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>AF returned at 3 months PP and was regular-ish straight away (25-28 day cycles, which I had before having LO). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810798 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:36:15 +0000 Tidybee 1810798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got AF back after 7 months and ebf </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810796 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:34:28 +0000 lamariniere 1810796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was completely normal when it started after both of my LOs. I have always had a really regular cycle though. I EBF and AF came back at 10 months PP with LO1, and 3 months PP (booo!) with LO2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810353 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:37:06 +0000 Purpledaisy 1810353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine back at 13 months PP while still breastfeeding and they were regular right off the bat. They're actually way more regular now than they were before pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810345 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:32:01 +0000 Ocean girl 1810345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 11 1/2 months PP I'm still waiting for dear old AF to make her return... Still BFing ~4 times per day. Am guessing she will come back when I go back to work next month and we drop to 1-2 feedings? Maybe?<br /> Oh, and was super regular before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810342 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:29:15 +0000 marionberry 1810342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It took about 4 cycles. My cycles are actually 30 days now when they were only 27 days before Jack. Pregnancy must have reset my hormones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810291 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:07:36 +0000 photojane 1810291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>NEVER.

They were VERY regular before pregnancy &amp; after about 2 periods, they seem to be very regular now as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810237 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 17:12:45 +0000 bhbee 1810237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>good ol' AF came back around 7 months so I'm guessing it was triggered by starting solids (I continued to BF until 18 months). then I had a few weird cycles before it got back to my norm (31-35 days). but I tend to have weird random cycles anyway, so I'm not sure how much I can chalk up to PP! we weren't TTC at first so I only noted how long the cycle was, not whether/when I ovulated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810212 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 16:51:24 +0000 Dandelion 1810212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With S, it came back at 7 weeks, and at 3 months, it was normal enough for me to track it and get ku again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810156 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 16:12:46 +0000 mrsjyw 1810156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>AF came back at 4.5 months pp even though I was ebf. The first three cycles were way off. anywhere from 35-53 days. Started normalizing after that. at 20 months pp, I still range from 29-35 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810151 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 16:10:16 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1810151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got AF back at 5.5 months pp while ebf.

They used to be around 34/35 days and now they are 29/30 on average. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-for-your-cycles-to-normalize-pp#post-1810082 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 15:35:35 +0000 spaniellove 1810082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know this is my 18435 millionth postpartum question! But I'm wondering how long it took for your cycles to go back to a normal length? (Not counting BFing!) Bonus points if you had ovarian reserve issues before baby, but I'd love to hear anyone's responses! </p>
