When did you get your first period while exclusively nursing?

Question

My baby is 5 months old I am still solely nursing her I’m trying to figure out when you normally get your period back as I keep reading you will have a dip in your supply 😟

Answer

Period returned between 11mo and 18mo with my 4 babies. Nursed them all between 14mo and 2years.

Answer

18 months pp with both my kids

Answer

7 weeks pp. everyone is different. Honestly i was so early on i don’t know if i even noticed a dip in supply

Answer

8w and 6w pp respectively with my two. 
My supply dipped slightly when my periods hit but not enough to be an issue (it’s rarely an issue). 
No need to stress about it. Just nurse on demand.

Answer

18 months. Didn’t get it back until my milk had been dried up for a month.

Answer

Immediately. Pumping didn’t affect my period at all and I pumped for 7 years straight.

Answer

Different for everyone.. it even differed from baby to baby for me. I got my period back 8 weeks pp with my second baby. With my third baby I didn’t get it back until I was 6+ months pp. it’s unpredictable

Answer

It’s different for everyone. I didn’t get mine back until I weaned
