Success after IF

When did you get your first PP AF??

So, I am almost 3 months PP and still no AF. I am not wishing her to come or anything but I am just curious when and she will show. I havn't gotten a period in almost a year now and I am sort of dreading it coming again.  I am BFing/Pumping but I read on here that many of you ladies are EBFing and also get your period. 

I am just wondering when will AF show up.  As soon as I stop BFin/pumping right? And my hormones get back in balance.  I was/have always been super regular but with all the IVF meds who knows. I am also on no BC because there is such a slim chance of us getting pg on our own. 

THis is normal right??!!

 

Re: When did you get your first PP AF??

  • I didn't get mine until 1 year with DD, 10 months with DS.

    If you are bfing/pumping it's normal to not get it for awhile....some do get it back sooner but it's usually not until you are going longer between feedings, or supplementing, etc. Or just unlucky  Stick out tongue

    LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
    LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).

  • We EBF and I didn't get mine until 5 days after DD's first birthday. And haven't gotten another since.

  • 9 months...and I haven't seen her since...

    I have PCOS though, and honestly, I was shocked when I started that PP AF.  I don't expect to see another AF without meds.

     

  • We are still EBFing, and I got my first PP AF at about 3.5 months.   and I just started my 2nd one yesterday.    I think every body is just different!   I assumed I wouldn't get AF until we started to wean, but nope!

  • af arrived 3 months to the day ds was born. I was ep too! She's arrived like clockwork every month since. I can tell when she's about to make her appearance as my milk supply goes down. Yup, Im still pumping!
