when did you period come back pp?

i’m 6 months pp and still haven’t gotten my period. i exclusively breast feed so was told that this may mean it takes longer to get my period again, i’ve also read that the first time it comes back is so painful which is making me nervous!

I’m 4months pp breast feeding too and only had 1 period since having baby girl. I don’t recall it being more painful just heavier

I havent had mine come back and I am 14 months pp It can take awhile so just enjoy not having it!! I have had painful cramps come and go so I think it will come back soon

Mine came back 5 months pp and I EBF too and I must say that they have been better than before being pregnant

Mine has just returned two weeks shy of my little one’s second birthday. We still feed and co sleep.

my daughter is about to turn 1 and I still haven't had one lol

Got first period at 9 months pp and it wasn’t painful at all and last a day shorter that used to be. I’m still waiting for the second round hopefully will be painless too.

11 1/2 months

Mine took 12mths and I can’t recall it being painful. Anyway you have had a baby so nothing that a bit or parcetomol won’t help with! Enjoy this non period time!

9 months ebf and no period yet

7 Months pp and i was exclusively breastfeeding

9-10 months both times

EBF and came back at 9months - not more painful but definitely heavier

I have pcos and my periods are regular since having my daughter. I ebf and got my first period 6 weeks and regular since, got pregnant and sadly lost the baby last month and just had my first period since. Strange how I’m more regular than I’ve ever been x from what ive read here it varies. I was under the impression I wouldn’t have periods if I breastfed but… here I am lol x

I exclusively breastfeed & my period came back 4 months pp and has been very regular ever since. It is soooo much less painful & lighter than before pregnancy though. As others have said, everybody is different so just enjoy not having a period- sounds like a dream!

6 weeks then nothing until 9 months. Definitely wasn't overly painful.
