10 months and no AF here, but bf still. Planning to stop bf at 13 months (after jabs) if no periods by then, as we're ttc #2.

Hadn't had a period for 9 months previously (and the last few had been produced by metforming and provera), when it turned out that was partly because I was 4 months pregnant...

hazeyjane - I've heard verity is a good website. I've always just used MN. I had a thread in Conception going while I was ttc ds2. I think the thread is full up now. No idea if anyone started a new one....
We should probably start a new one in the General Health section. Us girls need to stick together!

ggirl - So far my BP is very good. Always has been. Just my cholesterol which the GP is going to re-check in Sept

fruity-yes rasied cholesterol could be symptom of pcos .

High BP as well,increased risk of strokes /coronary heart disease because of these sypmtoms.

I have pcos, it took 7 years to conceive dd1 (although I had 2 mc in that time), and I fell pregnant with dd2 when dd1 was 5 months old (af returned after a few weeks), my periods became much more regular after dd1. My cycle are starting to get longer and longer now (dd2 is 2), but I don't know if that is the pcos or because I've just hit 40.

Is there a GI diet book or website that anyone could recommend? Thanks

Actually, that's another interesting point you make ggirl, I have raised cholesterol. Is that a symptom of PCOS? I'm not over weight and have a healthy BMI. My Mum has is very slim but has raised cholesterol so I assumed it was hereditary from her. It didn't cross my mind it would be caused by PCOS?

fruity-yes ,periods may become more regular as you get older but other problems like high cholesterol and BP start to kick in.

Lovely pcos isn't it

After dd1-dd3 af came back within 6 weeks and a regular 28 day cycle.

Bfing dd4 so still waiting 8 months later

Really? I've never heard that before, that's interesting.
I'm 30 now and don't want another just yet (well I do, but not a good time) but I'm hoping to have at least one more before 40, if not two - desperate for a girl!
I'm not sure I want to be still having babies at 40. That'll be mine and DP's time!

How typical that ovulation kick starts at 40

I have pcos.

Mine got worse after dd and my cycles were about 100 days apart. Be warned though..after yrs of trying for a second I gave up.
When I was 39 my cycles suddenly became 28 days long...how weird is that ..and ds came as a result.

I think it is common for pcos woman to suddenly start ovulating around 40yr.
I am 47 now and regular as clockwork ..shame as I'd have loved more children if I was younger.

You are soooo lucky to be able to bf! I'm very
