Any EBFs that have gotten AF back?

Just wondering if anyone that EBFs have gotten AF and if so, how has it affected BM supply?

 

TIA!

    Not yet, hopefully AF won't be back for a while.

    About a month ago I had all the pre-period symptoms, but then I got my Mirena. No period, just spotting ever since. I've heard your supply can dip for a few days during AF but then get back to normal right after.

    Mine came back at 8 wks and again at 13 wks. The first time I was terrified that my milk had dried up. LO was sucking but wasn't getting much. I didn't have enough pumped in the freezer so we did end up having to supplement with formula. I still let her nurse A LOT though so my supply doesn't dry up completely. My doctor was talking about putting me on meds to make more milk but as soon as AF went packing my supply went right back up, both times.

    When I got af when nursing DD1 my supply would dip the first two days of af. I have yet to get af after DD2.

    I haven't gotten it back either. Hoping it stays away for a while longer!

    I got my period when dd was 21/2 mo. I was so sad! W my first daughter I got the mirena in at 6weeks so I did not get a period for years.

    This time I have gotten my period twice. No issues with supply. Don't worry, you'll be fine! She may want to nurse more often if you get a temporary supply dip, but who cares? Just let her nurse on demand and I am sure it'll be ok.

    With DD it came back at 3.5 months, actually almost a year to the day from when it was last due.  I feel like I am about to get it now which is also almost a year to the day it was due LOL.  With DD my first and second PP periods did not do a lot of damage but from the third on it was a struggle twice a month, during ovulation and flow time.  It was really annoying.  This time I built a large freezer stash since I work and I am learning from last time.  The issue I had was not being able to pump enough.  When she nursed I just nursed longer so it was not that big of a deal.
