I am just curious when AF returned for you? Also, were you still BFing?
I am 9 months pp and I have felt like I would be back on the bandwagon a few times, but still nothing yet. I am still BFing. We have no intentions of adding to our little family anytime soon so I am not concerned, but just wondering if AF has forgotten about me?!

My period came back at 7 months PP. I was still breastfeeding but I suppose with DD starting solids, my supply decreased and whatnot.

AF came back 11 months postpartum, and I was exclusively pumping 5x a day.

At 9months pp about 1.5 months after she started STTN. We were still BFing and supplement 1 bottle of formula a day.

6 mo PP, and I'm in the middle of the second period after baby. First one was fine. This one is ridiculous. Perhaps TMI, but it is so incredibly heavy - it's like nothing my body has done ever before. Blah.

With DS, it was over a year, with breastfeeding.
With S it was 7 weeks, no breastfeeding.

My period didn't come back until 3 weeks after we weaned at a year. Thankfully it was pretty close to normal although my cycles haven't been exact.

With DS1 it was 15-16 months PP. With DS2 it was 7 months PP. We breastfeed. My period returned when they became interested in solids and started eating regularly.

Ugh, well it was fun while it lasted 
I received a visit from mine last night, at 9.5 months pp. While I was ready for it to come back, there was a part of me that was sad, for some reason. I had a feeling like it would be starting back and, well, there it was!
Now I am a bit nervous about my supply since we are still bfing.
