I STILL don't have AF back.

..And I am worried as heck. 

I haven't pumped a drop of milk in over 2 months, so I thought I would have my period by now.

I have taken around 43545324 pregnancy tests and all are negative. We're not preventing a pregnancy. Honestly, we're being really irresponsible. I don't want to get pregnant right now because I haven't lost the baby weight, I actually gained 10 pounds once I stopped pumping and I think my body would be completely destroyed if I got pregnant again. I know it's a stupid reason because other than the baby weight, I would actually be really happy if I were pregnant.

Anyways, I would like AF to return because at least I would know if I was or not. We could also PLAN better as well.

 

Anyone else FF and still not have their period back? Should I be worried? My DH is kind of worried and is pushing for me to find a new doctor (we just moved) so we can figure out what is going on...but I think it's normal...right?!

I am going crazy. Talk to me ladies. If you are FF or just recently stopped BF or pumping, when did you get AF, or are you still without her?

 

TIA (:

  • Same happened to me. Turned out I have a thyroid condition that developed during pregnancy. It's worth asking for the blood test, in my opinion just to rule it out. I have been told that it is fairly common. 
  • Thanks! I will be scheduling an appt soon (:
