DS1 - period came back at 17 months on the day I gave him his last breastfeed. That was the only one I've had since August 2011 as two weeks later I was upduffed with DS2.

DS2 is now 6 months and I have yet to see AF and he is a boob-monster, nay, maniac like his big brother. Not expecting to see her any time soon for that reason.

DD1 took 9months and I was doing breast and bottle

DD2 hadn't had one even after a year and now I'm pregnant again...without having had a period inbetween!

3 months with DD, 7 months with DS. Both breastfed.

I breast fed and had my first period after 11 months. I'd hoped to start trying for baby no.2 by then but my body wasn't ready! I think they started again as I was weaning baby of breast.
Now decided to give my body a little break and wait to have 2-3 periods before trying for another pregnancy.
