Would love to know too

8 months, the second period after that was quite late though so I don’t think it’s found its rhythm yet

1st 5 months pp, 2nd 5 weeks pp. Both the same normal delivery. I found no reason for the difference

Currently 5 months pp and no sign of it yet

Currently 9months pp and been doing 1 bottle of formula a day for a month and still no sign

10 and a half weeks pp

11 months pp after my first Currently 1 year pp after my second and no sign yet. I do have PCOS though

Was about 10 months I think, but it was irregular for about 3 months.

I got my period when i was 4/5 months pp then i haven’t got it since my babys now 7 months

8.5 months but super long 50-90 day cycles

Around 9 month pp. Have been regular since then

16 months and no sign of it!

Both pregnancies around 6weeks pp.

8weeks and 1 day 🫠

2 months postpartum! It was a shock!

7-8wks with my first two pregnancies

I got it a week after giving birth every 2 weeks 🫠

My first was around 5 months PP and no sign of this one and I’m nearly 4 months PP

8 months for me and was fairly regular. Exclusively breastfed as my son wouldn’t take a bottle 🫠

6 weeks then a gap until 9 months.

My first in 2018- 14months pp (c-section delivery, milk still came in very quickly, boob monster and no issues with latch- very easy to feed, had coil fitted 3mths pp) My second in 2020- 3 months pp (c-section delivery, milk never really went away as breastfed first until 2nd trimester in pregnancy when I couldn’t tolerate it… baby had severe tongue tie- which was revised at 1 month old, and subsequently went onto being a very easily distracted feeder, coil fitted 4 months pp) 3rd child 2024- 6mths pp (vaginal delivery, milk came in quickly, baby had tongue tie which was revised 3wks pp, now quite likes her food in the day now so think that coincided with return of periods, not on any that would contraceptive to impact periods)

I got unlucky and mine came back after 6 weeks

6 months pp

19 months with my first, she started only feeding once a day around then. Fed until she was 2 years and that exact month I fell pregnant with my now 8 month old. No sign of period yet! Both EBF xxx

I’m 18 months pp and no sign of it yet! I’m down to one day feed & still breastfeeding during the night. X

11 months for a day, pregnant next month…. planned but super quick

9 months PP x

First baby got it 20 m pp, second baby 19 m pp, no sign of it this pp as of yet, they tend to feed loads in the night not sure if that's why I don't get periods back for a while

Mm I’m wanting to try for my 2nd but don’t want to mess up my little one’s feeding incase it dries up I’m getting the ovulation signs just no bleed..
