Shorter cycles post partum

Hi all

I'm combi feeding, and my period came back when my baby was about 14 weeks old. He was sleeping through the night at that point so dropping the middle of the night breastfeed probably brought on the return on my period

Anyway, since then I've noticed my cycle lengths are so short. I seem to be having a period every 2/3 weeks. Right now for example, I'm only day 8 of my cycle and I'm definitely ovulating. I always used to be about day 14/15. It's worrying me, as when I google quick ovulation it comes up with infertility issues. It took us nearly 3 years to conceive my first, and now I'm worried these new short cycles are a sign of my fertility coming to an end. We would definitely like another baby at some point

I'm 32 if that helps, and I know my AMH (egg count) was lower than average a year or so ago.

Just wondered if anyone else had experienced this?
