nah, it wasn't after her birth (AF was here at 6.5 months and has been 6-10 weeks ever since - this is honestly the most regular i have EVER been!) - this was 2005 - April to December. up til that point, it had been about 4-6 months from when i was 16 (and when i did bleed, it was for anything up to 6 weeks at a time). after that, we started the AC journey and i was down to about 8 weeks between cycles - this has been the most regular i've ever been - still all over the place though. one cycle i bleed properly, next i spot for a few weeks with nasty clots but no flow (this is what i've just been through). messing with my head something shocking!

DD won't go to sleep for me without a feed first. will for Daddy though (i was sitting 2m or less away today and she went to sleep without a feed cos daddy cuddled her. she rarely resettles overnight without a feed. i guess i'm not in a rush to wean though because we're not going through AC again, so chances are slim we'd conceive - i'm just letting E do her thing so i can't really offer much advice there
