AF and weaning moms

Maizey06

Did anyone get AF back once they went to just BFing in the morning and evening?  I know everyone is different but I am wondering if there is a good chance I will get AF back now that I stopped pumping at work.  

DD is very attached to her morning and evening BFing session.  I feel bad that I will have to wean just so I can try to get AF before doing another round of IUI.

Yup! This exactly. AF finally returned last week once I cut down to just morning and night feedings. Didn't miss her and she came back with a vengeance so be prepared! Ha!

I ep. I've been down to 2 sessions for a little over a month, and still no af. That being said, I'm probably producing a lot more milk in those 2 sessions than someone who bfs twice a day.

I'm down to morning and night, still no AF. I've been off the mini pill for a month. I'm still waiting!

I got AF back about a month after I stopped pumping at work (LO was 10.5 months old when I stopped pumping). Still nurse a a couple times a day.

I got mine back after 5 months PP.  You're lucky duck!

Still no AF here. I do have Mirena though. When I bf DS1, I didn't get it back until I fully weaned.

AF came back almost as soon as we started solids, even though he hadn't dropped feedings. You are lucky it is definitely possible that you will get AF back quickly.
