    Question Upping feeds = loss/late AF?

    Soooo.... I got AF back exactly 4 months after DS was born a heavy 5 days. A calendar month later, I got it again, a 'normal' 5 days. Then a week early and a light 3 days. Now... it's been 6 weeks. I've done a HPT and it's negative- do you think DS requiring more milk would make AF go for a holiday??

    Just a thought... anyone else experienced this?

    Would love some feedback xx

    It is possible I guess that BF more would make it disappear? I have no idea! I hope mine doesn't come back for a while.. lol

    yeah I was pretty bummed when mine returned!! But now I miss it!!! Every time I go to the loo I'm looking for it! It's the complete opposite of TTC! (not that another wouldn't be welcome, just a bit sooner than expected!)

    Bubs isn't feeding overnight or anything, but he is feeding more during the day, I'm hoping that's what it is

    Not sure but I got mine back at 7 months, had 3 regular 28-30 day cycles until my last one where AF went AWOL for 7 weeks and I was like you hoping for it to show up everytime I went to the loo just to know what was going on. My period actually showed up when she stopped sleeping through the night and upped her night feeds.
