    I was full time expressing for DS2 when I fell pg. My milk slowly dried up by 10 weeks. Unfort I Mc that pg.. I was then BF my DS3 when i fell pg with DD. My milk dried up again at 10 weeks by that time DS3 was 21 months so he weaned himself.

    Only difference was I always get my Af back within 4-6 weeks of my post partum bleeding stopping..

    I felt pg while bfeeding DS. He was 12months old and feeding 3 x perday butnot over night. I got af a week after his first b'day then fell pregnant straight away. Wishing you lots of luck for your next one

    My AF came back when DS was 9 months old. I was still BFing him when I fell pg, but he was about 21 months old. He was still feeding often & AF was still not regular, but I was obviously ovulating sometimes!
    It did take over 12 months of AF coming back for me to concieve, but we weren't actively trying. Infact I was due to get my depo needle & DH was working away. It was the week after new years this cheeky little one snuck in. The only week DH was home & from what my body was doing, I think it was actually the first time I did ovulate!

    AF returned when DS was 4 mnths old and he still feeds overnight. I can feel when I ovulate which I didn't prior to having DS so that is a way I use to avoid getting pregnant at the moment

    Hope your cycle returns quickly and you are sucessful with TTC
