    If I get it again next month I will call the ob and try to get a IUD. I hope it doesn't return. Ugh.

    No period yet, and I hope she stays away for a long time. With DD#2, I EBF for 13 months, and got my period back at 7 months PP. I'm hoping the same happens this time.

    I'm an EP'er no BC and a good supply but mine came yesterday at 10.5 weeks PP. Boo! Supply has dipped the last two days so I'm doing extra pumps and Fenugreek.

    Yes :(

    PP bleeding for 4 weeks, slight spotting around 6 weeks, and then right at 8 weeks started anew and last for 6 days, so I'm calling a period. No BC and EBF (though he STTN).
    All of the resources I've seen say to count any bleeding beyond 56 days as a period, and I started bleeding on day 57.
    Just my luck :P

    No period yet. I EBF and LO is 14 weeks (can that really be right?). I got Mirena last Thursday so I'm hoping to be period-free for a while!

    My doctor told me he couldn't put the mirena in until I got a period. Then when I got it and was so upset to
    Have it I was out of town. So now I have to wait and see if I get a period next month to do the mirena.

    I'm 14 weeks PP and when this thread first started I was like UGH no way... no period for me! I don't ever want that thing back! Yesterday, SURPRISE! It's back... and it is horrible!  For 2 years before getting pregnant, I didn't have any periods (I was on the Lupron shot and continuous birth control for endo), had 3 periods while trying to get pregnant, and now it's so heavy just like right after I delivered.  I am EBF, but DD has been STTN for a while now, so I am going to blame it on that.  It's a blessing that LO is such a good sleeper, but now poor DH... It's obvious that I am back to ovulating, so I have NO desire to DTD in case another BFP would show it's face! I'm not ready for that!

    @Cherylwang‌ - wow, that sucks! The only stipulation my OB had was that I wait until 12 PP. I also took Cervadil the night before which made insertion basically a breeze. Since your period may be irregular, how do you make an appt for Mirena implantation?

    They just told me to call when I get it. I don't like the idea of having it put in while I have my period either. Gross.
