I EBF'd for 3 months, pumped for another 2 (ended in late Feb). I didn't get a pp period until September.
Little Man (4 years old---holy cow) He's the single greatest thing I've done in my life and reminds me daily of how fun (and funny) life can be. He's turned out pretty swell for having such a heartless and evil mother.
How you deliver (c/s or vaginally) makes no difference on when you get your period. That said, DD was 10.5 mos when mine came back in August and I've only had two cycles since.
FOUR freaking weeks pp. DD was born about 2 months early and I got a period a month later. Blah. I loved not having a period when I was pregnant! I was looking forward to a free more months AF free but I've had 2 since she was born 10 weeks ago. I've only BF'd her too.
I conceived DD at 12 weeks pp and hadn't had a period yet. I had one day of spotting that the OB said may have been my body's pcos weird first period, but she didn't really think so.

I just got mine a few days ago (boo). I am BFing but supplementing pretty heavily at this point.
