I’ve been breastfeeding the last 13 months and still no period.
I exclusively breastfed and I got mine back within a few months...but I've had 5 kids and it varied each time
No not true
I got my period 5 months pp but it’s extremely light compared to what it used to be
I’m ebf and I’ve just had my first proper period now at 18 weeks pp. looks like it’s delayed if you’re breastfeeding
I exclusively breastfeed for two years. I had one period at 18 months and then nothing until 24 months when i stopped.
I'm EBF and almost 8 months pp. No period yet 🙃
i didn’t get mine until 8 months pp. i spotted at 5 months pp but barely anything. it’s different for everyone
I had mine the whole time I breast fed from day 1. I mean my regular periods...
Nope not necessarily I started mine with first two within like 6 weeks the third for it like 6 months after.
I’m EBF & got my period back at 10 months pp. everyone is different though
I’m combo feeding and just got my first today at 6 weeks pp x
I am still breastfeeding and also pumping together with some solids and my period didn't returned yet. My son is 7,5months old now.
Got mine back at 6 weeks exactly was not happy but then got the IUD and only had real bleeding once after insertion

Everyone is different. I’m 13 months postpartum. I’ve been breastfeeding this whole time from my baby’s birth and still breast feeding. My period came back at 12 months postpartum, but I believe mine was stress. I lost my job I couldn’t remember anything because of postpartum depression taking it’s toll on me.
I was breastfeeding and pumping and got my period 4mo pp. Was able to keep up a supply for the rest of my babies first year but barley. Had to supplement with formula when my period came, as my breasts would just dry up then 😒
I got my period back at around 1 year, and I'm still breastfeeding at 2 years
Exclusively pumping mother here. I was pumping out pretty much 6+ bottles a day for 10 months, got my first post partum period at 7 months pp. I dropped my feeds only close to baby turning 11 months old and reducing milk intake by herself.
I know for me if I would keep breastfeed no period however if I would stop for long periods of time I would spot here and there, my milk supply would also suffer.
I think it depends everyone is different. I exclusively pump and didn’t get my period until I dropped to 3 pumps per day as I started weaning which was at 9 months.
It depends I’m EBF and still haven’t had my period, currently 5 months pp. But I have a friend whose LO was born on the same day who is also EBF and hers returned just over a month ago.
Nope im exclusively breastfeeding and got a period at 5 weeks PP
I got my period 6 months pp and I was still breastfeeding, but it just depends on you. Some women don’t and some women do.
Definitely not true. A lot of people (but not all) though don't get their period while exclusively breastfeeding (ie no solids, and possibly no bottles/pacifiers). I got mine back at 9 months postpartum, so still breastfeeding but we started solids a few months before.
I breastfeed and got my period 8 weeks postpartum. Everyone’s different it’s hard to say when you’ll get your period
I exclusively breastfeed for 16 months and got my first period after 9 months but was bk to clockwork a yr in
I breastfed one kid for 14mts got mine at 10mts and the other kid for 14mts and got it at 17mts...so who knows.. 🤷♀️
It’s different for everyone
I breastfed for 12 months and got mine back at 9 months i don't know if it was because o wasn't feeding as often (as he had started soilds and water) or just my hormones getting back to normal).

Not true I’m exclusively breastfeeding and I got my period at 2months pp
No. I’m 3 months postpartum and breastfeeding and on nexplanon that previously made me had no periods and I got my first period postpartum last week. Was not expecting it at all
@Jaida better safe then sorry
Okay good to know I'll prep for either way. I'm 7 weeks pp
I’ve stopped breastfeeding for about a month now and I still haven’t gotten my period and I’m 12 weeks PP
I’ve heard it depends since each women’s body is different. Some women do get it. I’ve been breastfeeding for three months and still no period
No
