Did AF come back at the same time for you after each baby?

Clockwork fertility there!

Mine was different both times - 6 months with DD1 and 6 weeks with DD2... both fully breastfed, bit weird >.>

So now we just wait for the PA?

haha not just yet! I think I should spread their birthdays out a bit this time, lol.

Both my girls were fully breastfed, no comps or foods, still waking and feeding through the night and my period came back bang on 6 months with both of them.

11 months with DS...

DD is almost one and still no sign of AF. Hoping she stays away for a while longer yet!

3 months after DS
5 months after DD1 (altho interestingly she was 3mths corrected)
3.5 months after DD2

All fully breastfed and feeding lots overnight. in fact I was tandem feeding with DS & DD1. Not fair really - would have loved a good year without it!! but I feel safer contraception-wise actually having AF back so I know where I'm at.

Wow Heaven, I'd love to have 14 months before AF came back

Kyson was 8-9 months when AF came back. He was still breastfeeding around the clock.

I thought it would be longer after Shayla because I was tandem breastfeeding around the clock, but it turned out that I must have ovulated when she was 5ish months old. Instead of an AF I got a baby hehehe.

Hmmm, I wonder how long AF will take this time while triandem feeding?

Hi,
If you are fully brestfeeding with no comps or foods, your baby is under 6mnths and you haven't had a period then it is highly unlikely that you will get pregnant. This method is about 97-98% effective. But, if any one of these conditions is breeched - then all bets are off. It is a very effective form of contraception though.

I'm in the 2-3%, lol! Our littlest baby girl very much wanted to join our family and beat all the odds ♥

DD1 & 2, breastfed for 6ish weeks. AF returned around 4 months (Yeah, I don't get it either!)

DS BF for 23 months. AF returned at 9 months, but was 6 - 8 weeks apart for almost 12 months, so guessing no ovulation. DD was conceived at around 21 - 22 months.

DD BF 18 months so far. AF returned at 15 months (even though I was on depo) & has been kinda regular for the past 2 cycles (no depo), so I assume I'm ovulating again now.
