PP AF?

JenJar · September 2011

If you were EBF, when did you start your period?

With G, it was exactly 9 months after he was born. This time, I stopped bleeding at about 4 weeks pp, had my check up last Thursday and started the mini pill on Friday. DH and I had sex on Sunday, and again on Tuesday. Yesterday I woke up spotting, but thought it was from us having sex. By mid day, it was a full period-type flow and I'm still bleeding. I don't know if this could be my first pp period not.

I just had my first PP AF 2 weeks ago- when he started just nursing at bedtime.

A month after she fully weaned. I kept hoping it would come when we cut down to 2 and then 1 session bc I wanted to get pregnant, but nope. Of course, now that we will be done with babies I will probably get AF right away this time haha.

I EBF, and got my period at around 8-10 weeks pp. I don't remember exactly, but it was right around there... and I was bummed!

I got AF right at a year. But I could tell I was ovulating about 6 months in - my supply dropped and I was having the symptoms of ovulating (CM, headaches, etc).

I EBF, didn't even pump much and I got it at 4 mos pp. I was pretty bummed!

I didn't get mine until I switched from the mini pill to the regular pill-I think she was about a year old.

With Leah I stopped bleeding totally at 6 weeks and had AF a week later

With DD I got AF at 11 months PP. With DS, I had only spotting after I was out of the hospital, for a week. Then about 5-6 weeks PP I had heavier bleeding, but it just didn't seem like AF. After that I haven't had anything, so you could still just be having some PP bleeding.
