Hi stacey83,

I have been bfeeding for 7 months too but AF returned for me when my DS2 was 15 weeks old. This happened when he started sleeping for longer periods at night. It was light and didn't last for very long but the one I had next (which was 38 days later) was horrible!!! Very heavy and lasted over a week. Things are back to normal now though.

To answer your question about pain, well before I had DS1 I had very painful periods but after having him - and AF returned then exactly one month after birth, even though I was bfeeding - the pain was gone! Still had slight discomfort but nothing like I'd had before being pg.

Your little man is very cute BTW!
