Where O Where is AF?

dee & bee · February 2013

I went through my whole first pack of mini pills, now on day 3 of my second pack, and no AF. Is that normal? I had light spotting during the first week but nada since. I EBF and O is 12 weeks today. I am seriously hoping you will ease my mind... TIA chicas

I'm not on the mini pill, but I EBF and still haven't had a period yet. N is 18 weeks old. I know with BF it can be normal to not get it for a while PP, so that may be why you didn't have withdrawal bleeding on the mini pill.

I just got my first pp AF, LO is 15.5wks. I EBF'd for 12wks and LO is now fed with a BM/FF mix. I got the paraguard just after my 6w PP appt.

I was under the impression that you dont have a period while on the mini pills. I thought it was 28 pills of the same dose of whatever and you just take a pack back to back- so you dont get the withdrawl bleeding (period). But I am BFing and stopped my pills a month (?) ago and still no AF. (no positive hpt either)

This. My midwife said I probably won't get a period while on the mini pill as long as I continue to BF or pump. I wouldn't worry.

My OB said that if I get my period while on the mini pill I need to call and they'll put me on something else. They said its not effective after you have your period.

My midwife said nothing of this........

I use the mini pill and EBF. I got a period in the last week of my 1st pack. I am now on my second pack. We'll see it it is regular if I get my period next week sometime...

I wouldn't worry.
