DD was EBF until 6 months &amp; then we slowly began introducing solids, so I got mine back fairly quickly compared to a lot of people. I did notice a dip in my supply but after my period it did go back up to almost what it was before I had it back. It dips a little bit each month now when I have my monthly gift, but it does go back up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65962 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:52:02 +0000 BabyLove 65962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh jeez, what a bummer. I bled for awhile after my vaginal birth, as expected. But I haven't gotten my period and LO is 5 months old. I wonder how often that happens. Seems unfair to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65957 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:46:40 +0000 Boogs 65957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Oh interesting and good to know, thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65927 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:11:22 +0000 Mrs. Bee 65927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: getting your period can affect supply, but it doesn't affect everyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65925 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:10:14 +0000 chopsuey 65925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My period started at 7 months pp. Currently on my 3rd cycle and supply is fine. Just make sure you get enough rest and drink lots of water! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65867 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 14:59:06 +0000 Boogs 65867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Is that something that can sometimes affect supply? I got mine a few months back, but so far so good. But, it was also when LO was a bit older &amp; I'm EBF so maybe that's why I didn't have problems? Oh, and I also had a c-section. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65866 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 14:57:38 +0000 Mrs. Bee 65866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh man that sucks. i got mine 3 months after i stopped pumping at 9 months with charlie, and i had a c section too. hope it doesn't affect your supply! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65863 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 14:55:38 +0000 Boogs 65863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man that stinks! Poor you for getting it so soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65788 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 13:54:53 +0000 tequiero21 65788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wow! pregnant so soon after giving birth. that's almost as bad (or maybe worse) than having twins!</p> <p>period so soon! might be hereditary? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65706 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:40:29 +0000 autumnlove 65706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bled for about 2.5 weeks after my C section then it was just clearish discharge. When I started to get cramps and bleeding the other day, I thought something was wrong so I went to see a nurse practitioner who let me know it was just my period. She said every woman is different but most breast feeding moms usually have a few months of no periods! Ugh! My mom's period also returned a month after giving birth and she got pregnant a few weeks later....I better get some BC at my 6 week check up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65692 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:21:55 +0000 Rubies 65692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Period already?? How come? (I mean, does having a c-section have anything to do with it? I never knew!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-period-is-back#post-65676 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:05:02 +0000 autumnlove 65676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My lovely period has returned 29 days after my C-section. I'm so bummed...I thought it would be a lot longer since I am breastfeeding and pumping regularly. </p> <p>Did getting your period affect your milk supply? </p>
