TMI: periods

My daughter will be five months next week and I still haven't gotten my period
For those of you who FF or only BF at the beginning, have you gotten yours yet?

  • I know women you EBF or even BF with supplementing can take a while to get theirs
    But it was my understanding that most FF moms get theirs in a shorter period if time
    I EBF the first 5 days of my daughters life. Then they had me start supplementing so I BF and supplemented for the rest of that first month, and then went to just FF
    I feel like I should have gotten mine by now though..
    Are there signs before you get it that let you know it's coming? Besides cramps?
  • I got my period at 8 weeks and it was a doozy! I haven't had it since, but have had episodes of breakthrough bleeding....so annoying!

  • I have been EFFing and didn't get mine until after four months, and even then my doctor put me on some additional hormones because I didn't want to start my BC pills until I got my period back first.

  • My DD is 21 weeks, and I had 2 days briefly of spotting around weeks 10 and 13, but no actual period.  I just took a test this last weekend (negative thankfully), but I am doing both, BF and FF, I bf when I am around her, and FF when I am not because I don't produce enough to supplement bm while I am at work.  But my Dr said that with bf and being on the mini pill it could cause me to not have a period until I begin regular birth control pills which wont be until she's about a year old.  So, here's to no AF!

  • Not quite in your situation, but similar.  I've been supplementing since 1 month due to low supply.  Stopped completely about 5 weeks ago and still haven't had my period.  I've taken 3 pregnancy tests and they're all negative, so I'm just.....waiting....trying not to freak out yet. 
    BFP 4/30/12 EDD 1/9/13 Our first!
