Anyway, I think that sneaky b!tch AF is looking to come make an early comeback. I was so hoping I'd be one of those women that didn't have to deal with it until after I was done bfing. I would have even loved 6months.
Over the weekend I had all my old O signs, so I'm thinking AF will show up in another week and a half. I'm not temping so I don't know for sure but I had O pain and what looked like fertile cm, plus my supply dropped a bit.
Tell me I'm wrong- please? And if I'm not wrong, at least tell me it happened to you to so I can comiserate.
ETA: Still ebf but pumping for when G's at DC, which is only twice a week and 3-4 bottles a day those two days.
Re: If you got pp AF while you were still BF
ugh, stay away AF!!!
She came back at 6 months pp for me, while I was still EBFing.

Stay away AF!
Every single time was different for me. AF came back right away with #1, 4 months with #2, when I quit BFing with #3 and #4 and 6 months with #5. I BF with every one.
I hope you are wrong and have a few more nice months AF free.
Long story short, O was a really bad latcher, I EPed for 9 weeks, couldn't keep up with the demand so I stopped and started formula. AF showed up 3 weeks later.
Good news! I never got mine back except for a spotting period like event once before I got pregnant. I thought for sure I was about to start AF many times though and had symptoms, but never did. Maybe you'll get lucky!
I BF DS until he was 17 months - including pumping at work from months 3-13.
I got AF around month 10 - had a small supply dip, but it seems like that's time when a lot of people have a dip. I ended up adding extra pumps on the weekend to be sure I had enough milk to get DS through the week.
I hope AF stays away a bit longer for you!
BFP #2 5/27/12. EDD 2/1/13. m/c and D&C 6/21/12.
