Anyone still not have AF back??

I night weaned 3-4 months ago. We're down to 3 brief nursing sessions per day, combined with 'milk' (formula in his case due to allergy). So I don't think he's getting much from me at all at this point.

We want to TTC in the near future and I'm freaking out a bit that my cycles still haven't returned. I had some bleeding about ~50 days ago, but I don't think it was even a 'real' period (probably anovulatory). I am not pg, we haven't had much sex and I have POAS several times.

Did anyone have to wean 100% before your cycles returned to normal? How long after that did it take? I have really long (40 days ish) cycles to begin with and I am starting to worry that TTC #2 is going to take much longer than planned.

  • You can have my AF! :) It has been horrible and irregular. Hoping yours comes back soon. Have you checked with your Dr about this?

  • I have no sign of AF! We night weaned about 2 or 3 months ago and I am only nursing 2 times a day, sometimes 3. I haven't had spotting or cramping. No clue when it'll show up. I hope by January because that's when we are starting to TTC.

  • No AF here yet.  I still pump/nurse 4 times/day, but am ready to be done.  I don't miss AF, but would like to TTC in the not so distant future.  I too wonder how long after weaning until I see AF again?
  • I have been down to a morning and night feeding for about 4 weeks, and AF showed up Friday night. It isn't fun.

  • Not yet for me. I've got long cycles, too, about 35 days. I nurse about 4 times a day, sometimes once in the middle of the night, sometimes not. It's frustrating since we want to TTC as well. We aren't using BC, but nothing has happened yet.

  • No AF here, but I'm still nursing mornings/nights/weekends.

    This is my last week with the pump, so we'll see how that affects things.

  • No AF for me either.

    I STOPPED pumping in late August. At 5 months, I dropped to 4 pumping sessions per day, and no nursing. I exclusively pumped until August, and then took that month to officially wean off. I've been done pumping for 6 weeks and nothing. I'm not TTC, but it's frustrating not to have it... because I have to POAS all the time just to be sure.
