Mine definitely was readjusted post-partum. I used to have very regular cycles (28 days, O on ~CD 15). My first cycle postpartum was 43 days and I ovulated on CD 36. My second cycle was 38 days and I ovulated CD 28. And my third cycle I ovulated CD 20 and got pregnant. So they were definitely regulating, but I don't know where they would've ended up!

I was still nursing but mine started super long and then shortened with time. Perhaps the hormones from the IUD are still adjusting. So excited that you are TTC this summer!!!

I acutally had SHORTER periods post partum. Some as short at 26 days with spotting startinga few days earlier. I was a little freaked out but my doc said not to worry since it was the first half of my cycle that was short, and my luteal phase was still 14 days. That being said, I never went on any sort of birth control post partum, we just use NFP + condoms around O.

@cmomma17: I hear you! I was obsessive with tempting during TTC #1 as well! But it worked really well for me and I loved being able to know when I ovulated, so I did it again. But postpartum, my cycles were all over the place and so were my temps, so it was hard to figure out what was going on. I finally gave it and decided to try OPKs for cycle 3 (I had never used them before either) and OPKs worked really well for me and got me my BFP! But I don't regret trying temping first and it was nice to confirm ovulation after using the OPKs. Plus temping gave me my first indication of a BFP because my temps were triphasic that last cycle.
