I never post on here, but I just had to say, same here! Our daughters are days apart (8/6 is my daughter's bday) and I just got mine on Friday for the first time since I got pregnant. Funny, isn't it? I was also hoping for a little more time w/o it, but I'll take 17 months!!
I'm with you! Mine started this past Thursday (hadn't had one since 12/08). I was dreading it coming back, but I am proud to say it hasn't been that bad. No cramps at all... which isn't normal and lighter than previously. Hope is stays this way. Maybe it will also become more regular!

that is crazy!
I just went off my BP a few weeks ago but I am not sure if that is what it is.
I know. I was cherishing every day, so was DH. I will say that I have been cramp free so far, which is a HUGE change.
I'd cherish that too! I was EBF and then pumping for 9 months, but despite that I got AF at 5 weeks pp. My pp bleeding practically ran straight into AF. Ugh.
And I'm glad you are cramp free. Mine cramps are actually worse than before BFP. I didn't know that was even possible. Ugh!
MIL was saying that after both her boys her cramps were gone and then they were back after her girls. She would alternate no cramps, cramps, no cramps, no cramps.
I have to admit I don't miss AF at all. I'm hoping it doesn't come back until July/August when we start trying again. (I'm guess that that won't happen since I'm thinking of weaning DS at 12 months...)

lol at "so was DH"
I have to say that I have also been cramp free since AF came back and I am very pleased about that too!
Well it was a good run while it lasted

I am praying no more cramps or cysts!!
Missed m/c 10/25/10 @ 11.5 weeks
That is not me gagging, it's me "green with envy" ... get it? Too much oh a stretch? Okay.
But seriously, I'm super jealous.
