1 year

12mo first time 15mo second time

10 weeks. Every time.

14 months - after I had fully weaned

18 months

After all my kids around 6w-12w pp except 1... C1 mix fed ppb lasted 8w, first separate period 12w C2 ebf for 4/5m then mix fed before on formula. Ppb lasted 2-3w, period around 8w. C3 roughly the same as 2, period was week 7. C4 ebf for 3m, then mixfed due to working before being formula fed as my supply wasn't enough from that point. Ppb about 2w. Period around week 6. C5 presently no period still ebf, 4m old.

Exactly at 12 months and she's nearly 2yrs old and still nursing but weaning slowly

11 weeks

Finished breastfeeding at 5 months, period returned a month later at 6 months

6 weeks postpartum only a few days after I stopped after birth bleeding… has been regular every month since then. I feel cheated. Breast feeding and menstruating at the same time is for the birds 🥹

9 weeks with my first, still waiting after my second

9 months and nothing yet.

9 months here

3 weeks before my daughters 1st birthday

Around 8 months x

19 months and still waiting for it

We’re just about 9 months in and nothing yet

22 months postpartum!

1 year

1 year post partum with my first. Still waiting for it to return after baby #2 who is 10 months now

Roughly 2.5 - almost years postpartum with my second, third, and fourth child. My fifth child just turned 1, and I’m hoping I get a nice long break from my period, while nursing her as well.

It was longer with my firstborn but I can’t remember how many months afterwards. With my second I believe it was like 8ish months.

Around 9m and they it come every few months or so now

Around 13 months

Mine took 9-10 months to come back

10 months

16 months for the first one and I’m 10 1/2 months with my second and still no period

18 months and still waiting! With my first it was 17 months x

6 months pp nothing yet. Wondering the same thing @incognito

For everyone that has theirs return , is this with the same amount of breastfeeding or less feedings through out the day?
