DS is 4 and a half months, I'm breastfeeding (though he's now started on some solid food too) and no period yet. I'm not feeding at night as he's sleeping through, so not "breastfeeding constantly" which the books say is what prevents fertility returning.
What I want to know is... how long did it take for people's periods to come back, and do they start light or is it suddenly just back to normal (mine have always been heavy...) also could my foul mood with dp this week be PMT? did anyone get PMT before their first period after childbirth?
(I'm not desperate to get up the duff again by the way - not yet - just would like to know when to expect it. and whether I'm just being a cow for no reason )
