When did your periods return after birth?

I'm 8 weeks PP and with my eldest I'm sure I had a period by now.

I've FF from the start. I'm aware that BF it can be later.

Had a post natal check and doctor said he would be concerned if it wasn't here by 12 weeks which has worried me a bit.

People who FF from the start when did your periods return?

I think it was about 6 weeks with all of them. @

Exactly 28 days later, all three times.

I’ve been like clockwork since my periods began.

Ooh mine took ages. Pretty sure it was 6 months, and I formula fed from about 6 weeks as we struggled with BF and it was during lockdown so the support wasn't great.

9 months with ds but was breast feeding

6 months with youngest and was only bf until 3 months

Three years from conception to next period. Almost to the day. BF for a further 6 months but only at bedtime by then.

6-12 weeks for all three and I was actually breastfeeding.

6 weeks with my first two. Never came back after my third as I went straight into early menopause at 37.

8 weeks with my first, 5 weeks with my second. Both breastfed constantly so I was totally ripped off

InsufficientMum · 17/02/2023 10:48

Both 4 weeks. Exclusively bf both.

i had been exclusively breastfeeding nearly every hour of the day.

But i went to a 3 hour concert and left her with cups of breastmilk, and started bleeding as I was leaving the o2
