Parenting after a Loss

PP Period and BFing

Soooo....I know this has been covered before, but how long did it take for your AF to return? My LO is 10 months now, and I haven't gotten it yet. Anyone not see AF until their LO was totally weaned? Or should I be worried?

Re: PP Period and BFing

  • My LO is just over 9 months and I have yet to see AF. He is only nursing 1-2x at night. He gets bottles during the day. I figured I would have gotten it already, but apparently not.

  • Mine returned when DS was 15 months old. At that time we were down to 2 to 3 nursing sessions a day.  I was still on the mini pill and my periods were very irregular

  • Thanks ladies! It's good to know some of you got it late :] It seems I've only noticed posts about ladies getting them earlier. Phew!

  • 12 months out and no sign of her here. We're still BFing 4-5 times a day. From what I've read it's very normal no not get AF until weaned, or close to it.

    With DS1 i weaned him at 13.5 months and got my 1st PP AF 2 weeks after i completely weaned. I was bFing every 4 hours prior to weaning at that point.

    With DS2 i would have gotten my 1st PP AF at 16 months but I caught that 1st ovulation and got pregnant that was MC 1. I was BFing every 4 hours up to about 13 months and then weaned the day time feedings. So I was BFing mornings and evenings only from 1318 months.

    Everyone is different but some people don't get AF back until they fully wean.
