We are thinking about conceiving baby n2 in the next few months. I’m EBF and don’t have my periods yet. We are still open to try and see what happens as we heard that you can fall pregnant without them back in your cycle. However, how do you track ovulation?

I don’t know about tracking ovulation beside using the tests or checking temp, but I found through some research that some people won’t get their periods back until they are getting enough calories. I started tracking mine, and when I started getting enough, my period came back! This was 13mo pp with nursing. I got pregnant with my second on the following cycle!

I don’t know about tracking. I EBF my babies. Basically when I conceived my first I didn’t have a period for 2 1/2 years. I didn’t worry about it to much but when I went for my annual check I brought it up as it was about 2 1/2 years and because of my age I wanted to know everything was okay. I was put on progesterone and that started my cycle again. It was unknown if I would continue to have my period every month but I did and was pregnant again within a couple of months.
Again I never tracked or planned. I would say try and have fun, love, relax and big thing DON’T STRESS
Nature may take its course but if not happening within the time frame you want, maybe get checked and/or see if there is something you can take while breastfeeding to start your cycle again.

FTM mom here and EBF… but got my period early November 😭 I guess everyone’s body is different.
I’m tracking my period/ovulation using “Flo.” I don’t pay for the premium and use the free stuff on there.

I just track my periods with Flo and I had my period exactly a month after my baby was born and have been 28 days after each month. Just started my 3rd period PP today 🥴
