Period returned already

I got my first period since having my son 9weeks ago. I wasn't expecting it so soon considering i'm breastfeeding him- has anyone else had it return this quickly when breastfeeding?

I full bf my dd and I got my period at 10 weeks. I bf my ds for 3 weeks and came on two weeks later. It's not fair is it!

One of my NCT friends got hers back at about 8 or 9 weeks. She's now expecting her second baby 3 days before her first's first b'day!!

I know, it isn't fair! I was fully expecting a few more months at least. I've not seen my period for so long, it took me a while to work out what was happening! (It's was 2am in fairness)

Mine came back quite early too, despite fully breastfeeding ds. It was probably because he slept through from very early on (I was actually having to wake him to feed him for a while untilwe were happier with his weight!)

Mine came back 6 weeks after having a baby, 4 months later still breastfeeding and have regular periods.

Mine came back 6 weeks after ds2 which was a surprise to me since it had taken 6 months with ds1 and subsequently took 4 months with dd
