Periods returned after 17 months of breastfeeding, now stopped again?!

Help! Has anyone experienced anything similar? I have exclusively breastfed my son since birth, he’s now 17 months and I had my first period 6 weeks ago. I expected them to start properly again, but now no sign of my period? I thought I was starting as I get pains in my legs when my period is due but I’ve not started. I’ve taken multiple pregnancy tests which come back negative. So confused and just do not want to be pregnant.
has this happened to anyone else? Will my periods be very irregular whilst still breastfeeding?

It took about 3 months for me to become regular again. Both times my AF came back at around 18 months so sounds pretty similar.
