    I did a search and found this post. This is exactly what is happening to me. breastfeeding, on mini pill and cycles are getting shorter and shorter.

    last 4 cycles were 20 days, 18 days, 17 days, then 13 days!.

    I wasn't monitoring cycles before then, but AF returned at 6 months PP and cycles were roughly monthly.

    any suggestions? I am really over having AF almost constantly.

    The mini pill did that to me after DD1 too. Wish I had a magic suggestion but I just had to stop taking it. Took a while for it to even out too.

    Oh bummer. Can you take full pill while breastfeeding? My youngest is 15 months.

    Might have to look into other contraception, argh..
