Re: If you conceived while nursing...

  • I was still bfing 5-6 times a day and still had no period. I think I started ovulating when she was 6-7 months old and eating solid foods 3x a day but who knows since I haven't had a period since January of 2009.

  • Well...I never got AF back but apparently I caught the first egg as I'm pregnant ;-)  I night weaned a month ago which I think finally made me ovulate.
  • I never got AF back, but I was still breastfeeding 5-7 times per day, and I had just started supplementing with one bottle at night and she was eating two solid meals a day. She was 8 months when I got pregnant.

  • I got my period back at 16 months and got pregnant the next month, so I guess the first cycle we officially tried.  DS was still nursing on demand - 5-7 times per day.
  • We got pregnant our first cycle off birth control, but my daughter is almost 2 years old, so she's not nursing that much anymore.

  • 5 months.  I had my period and we did not use any form of birth control.  3 months of actively trying to keep an eye on when I was Oing and using opk's for 2 months of that.  However I was not using opk's properly, actually thought I was Oing after i already did.  I was pumping and dd was only nursing a few times a day.
  • We are down to 1x a day...and it a month of "not preventing." I'd had AF since 7 months pp.

  • Thank you. I just want to have an idea of what to expect when we start TTC in October. I have had 2 pp AF's already.
