Hiya, I got a period about 6-7 weeks pp then I didn’t get another one until around 8 months pp. My son is 14 months now and I’ve had them on and off since but not regularly. I’ve found for the first few days I do have a slight dip in supply but not enough to effect feeding, my son is usually just a bit fussier on the boob. This doesn’t happen to everyone, though. Having a regular period shouldn’t affect your supply whatsoever x

Got mine back 4m pp and hasn’t affected my supply at all. My periods are always a couple days late now and longer than ever before but hasn’t affected my bf journey. My girl will be 8 months on sept 3rd and I still ebf xx .

I got mine back at 6 months pp, but you can go up to 2 yrs w/o one EBF. I don’t have a dip in supply, but you can. It’s not really noticeable though unless you’re really checking.
