When did you get your period back AFTER weaning?

Question

Today is the first day without nursing my 13.5 month old. We are weaning because we want to start TTC and I know every woman’s body is different, but just want to get an idea of what timeframe seems most common!

Answer

6 weeks with my first, 4 weeks with my second, 5 weeks with my third. 
If you’re only nursing a couple times a day it will likely come back quicker than someone who weans from nursing many times day and night.

Answer

Any tips on weaning? 14 month pp and still no period and baby nurses around the clock! He’s never taken a bottle or pacifier and I just got him to start taking a cup with straw but he doesn’t like to drink anything other than dressy milk. I have heard once you wean you could get your period the next month! Good luck!

Answer

Got mine back EBF 2x. First time at 7 months (is had the flu and couldn’t keep anything down so I didn’t nurse for about 1 day). Got pregnant the next month with baby 2. I got period back after only 6 months with her 😭😭😭 was EBF and she hadn’t even started solids yet but I was back to work and had tough time with milk supply when pumping and that brought it back I guess.

Answer

Mine came back even while I was still EBF.
