    How long after bub did your first AF arrive?

    Hey everyone

    Just wondering how long after you had your bub did AF take to turn up?I didn't BF as I couldn't so when my milk finally did come in at day 6, I was engorged for a day then it started to dry up. I had Gemma 10 weeks ago today and bleed till week4-5, but still no AF!!Is this normal?I do have PCOS so I am wondering if this may be affecting it.

    After having Lily i blas for a bit under 2 weeks and then got AF 5 weeks after the birth. It can take longer, everyone is different.

    Well Hendrix is 5 months old and i BF him 5-6 times a day and he is now on solids twice a day and still no AF! Its quite funny cause half of me wants it back but the other half is quite pleased as i now havent had AF for 14 months!!
