How long did you wait to get AF while BF?

[mako]

It took me just over 17 months to get af back and we BF for 22.5 months with a feed over night during most of this time as well. I guess we are all just unique

I stopped BF at 6 months and got AF at 9 months, only had it twice before this next one made an appearance though.

hmmm only 10months for me, and DS still feeds 8+ times per day including 3 times overnight.
Every body is different.

I agree, it's different for everyone...
I'm FT expressing, I stopped pumping overnight at 6 months, down to 3 pumps a day now & still no AF.
I am still expressing about 1200ml a day, about 40 min per pump, so maybe that's why

I got AF back when DD was 8mths. (still breastfeeding)

[Daydream Believer]

full time BF & no dummy. I got it back 6-7 weeks

[Jellyfish]

My cycle returned when DD was 6 months old. She has never taken a dummy and still feeds ~7 times a day with 2-3 of those being overnight at 15 months old. I think it is just genetics and luck. I do know my Mum also got it back at a similar time but she had stopped breastfeeding around then.

after 3 months, when I went back to work. Pretty much the moment I put a breast pump to me. He still breast fed 3 times a day right up until 14 months.
