How long did it take for AF to be regular again?

Hi ladies - how are you?  My baby boy is 6 months old and AF is all over the place.  Right now I am 31 days since her arrival last and I was wondering when everyone else "normalized".  Thanks!!

My DD is 10.5 months and I still don't have one. I take a test every 2 months or so to make sure I'm not pregnant. So far so good...

I "normalized" , I guess, after 3.5months? It was just a bit light but around that time it got back to normal.

 Wow, you got lucky!

I still haven't gotten AF back and DS just hit 10 months.  With DD once it did come back it took about six months to completely normalize, which was also about the time I completely waned from breastfeeding.

I BF and AF returned five months pp. it has been regular ever since.

This, except AF returned at 9 months pp and has been regular.

This past cycle was close to 45 days. I just tested yesterday morning and go figure that it was here that evening!

DS is almost 10 months and no AF so far (despite starting to wean). I think everyone is different!

4 cycles at least.  The 1st 2 cycles were 33 days, the 3rd cycle was 31 days and the 4th cycle was 29 days as expected.  I EBF still.

I had two 45-ish day cycles and the last one was 28 days, I'm hoping I'm back to normal now to TTC!!

IDK if you are BFing or not, but I am still BFing my LO at 11.5 months and mine is not regular. I had one in January and one in March, I think, and have some cramping and spotting here and there. I'm pretty sure that is due to me BFing though, so if you aren't then I can't be of much help, I guess.

I'm 10 months pp and still nothing here, either! I'm kinda hoping it returns soon so we can start TTC. Of course, that probably means it will be several more months before I get it back lol

You can still get pregnant even when you don't have AF visiting. My dr would always tell me to make sure I use protection after we were 6wks pp, and I'm sure all drs say that because it can happen. I had a friend who conceived 4months pp and she didn't have AF either so I would say go for it!

I stopped BFing at 12 months and still no sign of AF. DD is almost 17 months.
