This might sound sorta weird, but

But I kinda wish I would get my period back already. It's like in some odd way, I miss it? Maybe because I knew that my body was actually working when I was getting it, and the excitement around ovulation with the possibilities... I don't know. BFing has my body on such efficient lockdown. Maybe it will come back when I quit pumping?

    I didn't get mine back until about 2 months after we stopped BFing, and I had already stopped pumping 3 months earlier and we were down to twice a day for very little time (15 months).  It's crazy how efficiently BFing takes over sometimes.  :)

    Pfft.

     

    I got mine back at 5 and a half months... while still EBFing. 

     

    And, amusingly, it's relatively regular. First cycle was long, but they've been shortening back to what was normal for me when my body works.

    Grrrr.. Mine returned at 8 weeks.  I am still BF'ing and it shows up like clockwork every month.

    I got mine back 10 days after DD turned 1.  And then back to PCOS crazy cycles.  It's not weird at all though -- I sort of felt the same way.  But since all it did was confirm that pregnancy had not fixed me it was sort of a let down for me ;)

    I feel the same way, I wish I would get a period.  I have thought about asking if anyone never got a post-partum period.  I am going on 23 months since my last cycle!  

    It would just be nice reassurance that my body knows what to do, but I am beginning to lose hope of that!
