Hi there, My boy will have 8m next week. I was bf untill now, but in the last month or so we started to have regular meal time with solids (2 a day) so my milk supply decreased 🙁 And i just got my first period.
I EBF for 6 months then I had to start giving 2 bottles of formula as we had weight gaining problems and I have only just got my first period 7 months & 19 days in x
Respectfully I hate all of you 😂 I got mine the first month after birth and I’ve been breastfeeding the whole time … although I’m not entirely sure why I’m shocked, I had them for 5 months of my pregnancy too! 🥲 I think it just depends on your own body and when it’s ready to get back to functioning the way it’s supposed to/ used to do. Just enjoy your time without it girl, it’s like having a blocked nose and remembering all the times you didn’t appreciate being able to breathe
I haven’t had mine yet and didn’t get it till I was 17 months postpartum with my first. I had night weaned her at that point and was making a concerted effort to eat more as I was thinking about trying for the next baby!
Yes, I got mine bang on 6 months following my little boy having gastroenteritis which put him off eating for a couple days (maybe has something to do with it 🤷🏼♀️)
No period for me yet
