If you're EBF or EPing, have you had a PP period?

MrsAy · October 2014

EBF and no period yet.

ricecakes1216 · October 2014

I pump and have not had my period. I think I just ovulated based on some signs. We shall see..it's been awesome not having my period..

MissBHaven1024 · October 2014

Mostly EBF (1 nighttime bottle daily), no PP period yet.

Julie&Micah · October 2014

EBF and period around 4 mo pp. It lasted almost 2 weeks and was horrid

Also did a number on my milk supply

Not on bc pills at this point yet, and next period is late (NOT preg) I thinks it's going to be somewhat irregular for awhile.

augustusgoose · October 2014

I BF and pump and sporadically get my period. Some months it's light, some not at all, onetime superheavy for about a week. I do feel that my supply has been greatly affected.

@hampire I don't think Paragard will solve that problem (although I think it's an awesome option for BC). I had it with DD and didn't get a period until 11 mo pp. Have it again with DS and still no period.

cinnamonsmiles · October 2014

Yes, one at 8 weeks PP but none since then (18 weeks PP tomorrow).

amackattack · October 2014

EBF 4.5 months no period. Between my ability to excessively eat and the no period thing...bfing is pretty awesome.

Taymiller · October 2014

EPer and no period at 4 months

Savvy122 · October 2014

EBF, but had to go back to work 3 weeks ago... and I immediately ovulated and got my period two weeks later. Obviously pumping 2-3 times per work day is not enough to keep my period away (read that like a poem).

coffee89 · October 2014

We are FF now, but when I was EBF it came back at 6 weeks.

jacksoha · October 2014

I BF and pump and I had one period the end of September. So when LO was about 3 months old.

flerlgirl · October 2014

EBF with paragard and no period yet. DD is five months tomorrow.

katekat8721 · October 2014

Yes a few days shy of 5 months PP.

Boo!! Does anyone have a birth control recommendation to skip periods? With my endo I don't even want to go down down that road again.

kriati03 · October 2014

EBF and no PP period at 4.5 months. Not on any bc. Hoping it stays away for a while!

rainbowdashh · October 2014

EBF and no period yet. With my first I didn't get it back until she was 11 months old.

BMaidPlanner · October 2014

EBF so far and no period. I thought I saw spotting a while back and again this morning though, and today my pumping-at-work output has been really low.

Dharmatron · October 2014

EBF and just got my period today and I am pissed! Haha

JulieSmiles · October 2014

And I just got mine today as well! Boo!

Cherylwang · October 2014

I am EBF and I got my first PP period when LO was 3 months and have been getting it regular since

I never got one with my other kids while nursing.

cm716 · October 2014

My LO is almost five months and still no Aunt Flo. I BF my DD1 for 1 year and my first PP period with her was 11 months.

Abenedict2011 · October 2014

Ebf and have had 2 so far starting at 3 months. At least I haven't had any cramps with them! Still sporadic in days and length. No other bc either (ntnp)

TunieBee · October 2014

@amberatkins8‌ so sorry!!

MrsCase1 · October 2014

I got an iud so I have spotting now. At this point I would have to guess "no" since it isn't regular, etc. I have no clue what's going on with my body. With my son I didn't get one till the month of his first birthday.

meritsamomma · October 2014

EPing and got my first at 4 months PP. Wasn't as bad as I was worried about! Only lasted two days and was lighter than my period ever was. Here's hoping it stays that way!

catsinawindow · November 2014

I voted SS because I have no clue if I've had a "period" or not. I seem to be bleeding every 2 weeks or so, but never as much as a real period (sometimes it's more like spotting for a few days, other times it's heavier but still not as heavy as a period). Anyone else have anything like this? It didn't happen after my son, my period came back at 6 months PP and came fairly regularly after that.

nicolemcm · November 2014

le sigh, yes
first at 8 weeks pp and every 4 weeks like clockwork since
ebf every 3hrs, except at night, no pumping, no supplementing
on bcp
heavier than before lo

Pahialii · November 2014

EP and no period in sight yet... yay!

lauren8384 · November 2014

I don't know what I had after I started the mini pill at about 8 weeks PP. It seemed heavier than just spotting, but I didn't have any cramps!!!! I EBF, so I'm hoping for just a little bit longer. Not looking forward to that coming back!
