Your cycle after having LO

crystalknpp

How different was your cycle once AF returned?  My cycles used to be around 32 days long and I ovulated later, like CD 17-20.  This is my 3rd AF since having DS and my cycles are now only about 26-27 days long and I'm Oing earlier, maybe day 10-12.  I know it's normal for things to change after having a baby but I didn't realize just how much.  Did your cycle change after having LO? If so was it temporary?

Yep. Same thing happened to me. Things regulated a few months later.

Mine was the same as my TTCAL days...but af was lighter and shorter...with the exception of the first cycle.

I've noticed that as well!

Mine were the same timing-wise, but AF is longer and worse than before.  So awesome.  It's gotten longer and worse with each pregnancy.

My AF is shorter by 1 day on average.  I also was a CD18+ O'ing and now it's ~CD16 more often than not.  I've had a couple 25 day cycles which were rare prior to full-term pg.

I used to have 35-day cycles pre-preg with a late O, but now I have regulated to a 28-29 day cycle, still with a later O. My AF is much lighter and shorter now. I get more cramps now than I used to, but they are much milder than they ever were. This all seems to be a permanent change--I have had AF back for about 10 months, now.
