I've heard the average time AF returns is around 14mo if you EBF. But, I also think it depends on how fast you ween, and if you continue to nurse at night/on weekends after you start cow's milk.
yeah i ebr also and have not seen AF for a looooong time! i'm lovin it, but at the same time, kind of anticipating it at some point so i feel like my body is back to normal. my midwife said that it's likely i won't get it until after i stop bf-ing, though...which is when we'll probably start trying for #2 :-)
got mine last month and I EBF. We went from nursing every 2-3 hours to every 4-5 hours in about a month's time and that's when it showed up. I also know that I just ovulated so I'm guessing it's going to be right on schedule this month....I was hoping to be irregular and skip a month or two before it came back but nope...
BFP#1 10/26/09 EDD 7/4/10 Beautiful Baby Boy born 2 weeks late 7/16/10
BFP#2 8/23/11 EDD 5/11/12 Natural Miscarriage @ 6 weeks
BFP#3 5/22/12 EDD 2/10/13 Stick Baby!
Yup just got mine yesterday. EBF, and I have an IUD. I emailed my NP just in case to see what she thought. We still nurse 5-6 times a day so I'm pretty surprised it's here. So far just some mild cramping, but I didn't have bad periods before.
