Do any of you remember when your second postpartum period came along? Was it regular after the first, or a more lengthy time, with your cycles just wonky? I'm sitting over here just waiting for mine.... God help me.
-
With DD, it came right on schedule, but my third was wonky. With DS, it came after 20 days instead of 28.
-
I remember after DS2 it was wonky...like a full two months b/w period 1 and 2 and then it got shorter and back to regular after that.
-
I waited for my second period after DS2 for a long time....then it turns out I was pregnant lol
-
@LadyDi: omg SAME
-
@Ms. RV: @JennyPenny: Thanks for letting me know it can be wonky!
@LadyDi: @nwm: omg. exactly what happened to me after my first IVF baby. A shocking surprise baby. I 83% do not want another.
-
Take this with a grain of salt since I have PCOS and irregular periods to begin with but my second postpartum period came 35+days after my first and I went right back on birth control.
-
I got my first postpartum period at 6 months. The second one happened about 37 days later, then 35, 33, 32, 28. Now it hovers between 26 and 29 days. It takes time.

@LadyDi: @agold: Oh my gosh. I am almost 9 months pp from #2 and am still waiting, but DH got the snip (hasn't been tested yet) so...
-
@Tionn3: thanks for letting me know this!
@crazydoglady: we will be scheduling a snip soon! Within a year as the outer time limit. I know someone who got pregnant after the skip!!! She didn’t wait long enough. 🤦♀️
-
I had one at about nine or 10 months postpartum, then skipped a month, and then it was regular after that.
-
For me it came right on time and I was regular right off the bat... I didnt breastfeed due to taking certain meds that pass through breastmilk so that maybe a huge factor in it for me I think.
-
@MrsSCB: crazy you skipped a month!!
@cyoung: I’m still breastfeeding my girl, all day and night 3 days a week, and just morning and night 4 days a week. So time will tell!!!
-
With DD2 I got my period back at 6 weeks, and then skipped nine months before they came back with a regular 33 day cycle.
My OBGYN just shrugged and said "Yeah, that happens sometimes".

@helloperidot: what a crazy thing to have happen!
