When did AF show up after baby? Were you breastfeeding?
I'm only 4 months postpartum, we EBF & I'm 90% sure AF is on her way...I was hoping is get at least 6 months without her!!

6 months with my first and about 12 months with my second. Don't be too sure... I was certain AF was on the way many, many times before it actually happened. I think your body has some false starts before it is really ready!

With DS, it was over a year, EBF. With S, it was 7 weeks no BF at all.

I just got mine a couple weeks ago at 4.5 months PP! At 4 months I started noticing changes in CM and knew it was on the way. I EBF and was a little surprised to get it back so soon. LO was STTN for a little while but hasn't since 4 months.

So at 11 months PP, I got my period on 12/14/13. I haven't gotten it again yet, though. And no, I"m not pregnant - I took a test yesterday to be sure! Not to mention it would basically be immaculate conception if I were! Anyway....is it normal for your first few periods to be weird?
ETA: We are EBF, just now supplementing/transitioning to WCM at 1 year.

5.5 months EBF & STTN. Regular immediately, though I ovulate later in my cycle than I did pre-pregnancy.

9.5 months was when AF showed back up, but 38 days later, I'm still waiting for her to show back up again (my cycle was always 29 days pre-baby)! And I'm EBF.

6 months PP and I EBF/pump for DS. I spotted for 1 day the past 2 months, but no AF. I have had some what appears to be EWCM, but who knows!
