    How annoying for you! Spotting in the early weeks while bfing is usually associated with starting the mini-pill but you haven't mentioned this so I will guess that you are not taking it. In that case, it is possible that it is AF, but it would make you unlucky! It is earlier than most women get AF back. It well could be an isolated bit of spotting, but until you are sure I would be careful about DTD without contraception.

    Thanks Manta ray. I haven't started the mini pill yet. It's been 3 days now, so I'm guessing it's AF which really annoys me. lol
    Luckily I really enjoy BFing and find I don't have many problems with it, because this is one perk I miss out on it seems.

    possibly is AF.

    Ashton was only 3 months when I got m ine back and he was feeding 2-3 hourly around the clock

    I also fell pregnant without AF coming back with Chase. Jaidan was only 5 months old and again feeding around the clock.
