Have your periods come back yet?

Emily • Mummy of 3 💙💜💙 🇬🇧 UK

I am breastfeeding my almost 1 year old as well as him weaning and having snacks. My periods haven't come back yet and I wanted to see if that was normal?

My 1st and 2nd babies I breastfed but periods came back around 9 months. Only difference with this baby is he is still waking in the night for milk so I guess that could be the reason!

Not complaining though, it's nice not having them 😂 but I keep having pains as if they are returning.

I got mine back at 8 weeks pp. I was exclusively breastfeeding as well. Currently don’t have them cause I’m pregnant. 😂

Mine have been super irregular this round. I’ve been spotting for a week to two weeks, then having a regular period a week and a half later and then nothing for a while then a heavy period. 🫠😵‍💫🥴

I was EBF & mine came back around 8 or 9 weeks postpartum. I only had it twice tho, it was not regular & I fell pregnant again at 5 months PP. so no periods for me now, but for a different reason lol.
