Postpartum cycles

Morgan

How long were your first few post partum cycles? And how long did it take to regulate?

We’ve been ttc baby number 2 for awhile now and I finally got my first cycle back in November and it was 41 days long! Now I’m on cycle 2 and wondering if this cycle will be just as long

My first cycle came back in April and was 47 days. Next month it was 40 days. Next month it was 29 days - now it is back to the normal 26-28 days every month.

I just stopped nursing in November and got my period back that month. I've had 2 cycles and they have been different than my old ones. They are much easier but they last longer and I bleed for an extra day. I ovulated on the expected date but my period was a week "late" before I started. Things are all messed up and we're not TTC so I've got to be more careful lol

Mine came back shortly after stopping breastfeeding last October. Since then I’ve had very regular 30 day cycles. But we have been ttc since then also with no luck! I feel like my ovulation days are off.

So I breastfed until 14 months and I’d say within 2-3 weeks of completely weaning I had my first light 4 day cycle. Then I have had a regular period ever since.

Mine came back in July and it was a very normal 4 weeks until my next period. We got pregnant on cycle 2 but lost the baby in November. I had a bleed (not a period because weirdly I didn’t ovulate) almost exactly a month after my d&c and now I ovulated yesterday on cycle day 20 which is pretty standard for me, so I’d say mine went back to normal pretty quick.
