S/O post partum AF - MOOKs

[kdrake8]

Did your first post partum period come back at similar times with each kid?

Mine came back at 3 months with M. Should I expect it around the same time this time as well?

[fusion]

6 months with J, 9 months with A. She took longer to night wean and sleep train so I assume that is the difference.

[charlielove]

It came back right around 12 months both times.

Oh, good question! I still hadn't gotten mine back when I got pregnant at 12 months PP. Hoping for the same this time!

20 months with H and as of this Sunday 20+ months with D. I've only seen my period about 6 times since early 2008 :-)

This is the dream! I haven't had one since July 2011.

How luxurious!

9 weeks pp with L
10 months pp with A - specifically the day of my dad's funeral, awesome timing.

PP AF coincided both times with when we stopped cosleeping.

Well nursing in the MOTN is a trade off but even leaving D for a week didn't jump start things. Last time it came back when I reduced pumping but I've quit pumping now and it hasn't phased my ovaries.

6 weeks with Dylan. 6 months with Lyla. No rhyme or reason I can see.

[teamhayes]

4 months with both

[dixeedeluxe]

5 weeks with edie (while nursing)
6 weeks with adeline (formula feeding)

So, yeah

[Deleted]

16 months with DS1 (nursed until 12 months)
13 months with DS2 (nursed until 11 months)

[nilex0102]

18 months with Nick and 16 months with Alex ( she was still nursing he had just weaned )

[greenkitty98]

6 months with B (right after he started on solids)
Never got it back with P, because I had the Mirena placed at 10 weeks PP.

This is awesome. I thought 2-3 periods since July 2011 was good. Of course my frugal self couponed allll these awesomely cheap Tampons, like boxes and boxes worth, the month before I got pregnant with C and they've just been hanging out. I should donate them, really.

The triage nurse last night was totally confused when I answered that my LMP was 7/14/11.

I have a bunch too but I'll probably get caught off guard at an in opportune time.

Mine came back when H was 7 months ... with Butters, he was 11 months. Here's to hoping the beast stays away a little longer for you!
