Wasnt sure where to start this thread. But my period has not started since I fell pregnant. I was told it was because I BF, but everyone else I know who BF there period restarted after dropping a few feeds. Is this normal?

14 months is the average if you're still bf'ing. I've heard a range from 6 weeks to 31 months for people who are still feeding. Mine haven't returned yet at 18 months although DS still feeds quite a lot.

How long is it since you stopped?

meant to say six in the morning! Had a very wakeful night due to DS deciding that he was way too hot and required a fan on!!
