I got mine when LO was 2 months old. It didnt seem to affect my supply GL.

I got mine at 3 months and it didn't hurt my supply.

I got mine in late May when DS was 7 months.  I know it took a hit on my supply while I had it, at least as far as pump output, but now it's back to normal.  I was crampy and had a few little spots in the past few days, and I guess that was my second period?  Maybe?  I don't know.  From what I am reading, with bfing, you usually get your period between the time of baby hitting 6-9 months, but it could be as long as 24 months, and it can be totally irregular, totally regular, or some combo inbetween.  I'm thinking I might start charting my temps in the next month just to understand what is going on with my body.

My LC friend told me that once there's a longer break between nursing sessions it would usually come back.  We needed me to start mine so we can do IVF again so I spent 2 weeks giving a bf bottle first thing in the morning to increase the amount of time between my nursings and it came on back.

It came back once around 4 months and hasn't returned since.

I got my first at 9 weeks, then 19 weeks, then 24 weeks. My supply bounced right back.

I got my first one at 11 weeks PP and got another one every 30-40 days until I got KU. My very first PP AF, my supply dropped a tiny bit on the first two days. But not to the point where I had to supplement or anything, and I already had a borderline-low supply. After that I noticed no change in supply.

4 months.  And I was so disappointed, I thought I wouldn't get it for a long time!  My supply drops a little for a couple days before I get it but then comes right back up.  It's been really regular so I usually pump a little extra to be prepared for the slight production drop.

I haven't yet, but I've read that its common to get it once LO starts eating less or less frequently. I go 10-11 hours at night without nursing/pumping and have for 2 months or so, so I guess I'm one of the lucky ones (so far). that being said I'll probably get it tomorrow lol.

I got mine at 6 months, but nothing since.  I hope it comes back on a somewhat regular basis, b/c we are TTC and I keep wondering if I am pregnant!  And yes, I take a million pregnancy tests, but still negative.  : (
