Weird period after pregnancy

El

Hello everyone!

So, long story short: I was on birth control for about 12-13 years I think. May 2017 we decided to try for baby nr.1. Ended birth control and got pregnant right away with first ovulation after stopping birth control. Fast forward 13 months after giving birth, and LO nursing just a few times a day, I get my first normal period (this was May 8th 2019). And we have decided to stop birth control to try for baby nr.2. June period was very weird, started a few days early with just spotting, then nothing for a day very light for 2 days, nothing on day 4, light spotting day 6. Now it's july, period should have started today, but nothing. I had some lower back pain a few days back and a headache. I've had cravings and I've very tired, like falling asleep while playing with my toddler tired 🤣).

Now my question is more about the first few periods after pregnancy, because I have no idea if I was regular before starting birth control a zillion years ago 😅.

I will still wait until the end of the week to test and see if AF comes along - just wandering what other experiences were.
