I’m 5 months pp haven’t had mine yet but looking at comments maybe it’s in store soon 🥲 my baby wakes up constantly through the night and I feed though so read online it can be up to 18 months or something dependinf on how often you breast feed x

7 months but it's still irregular

I had mine today post c swction 😮‍💨

@Sadhia this would be post partum bleeding - Lochia. This is totally normal and not considered a period.

Mine came back 8months pp I only breastfed for the first 3 months. It varies from person to person. Sucks though! The first year was like I was 12 again going through my first year of periods!!! It calmed down exactly a year after they started again.

5 weeks

The day my son turned 20 months. I was raging I thought I wouldn’t get my period at all until I completely stopped breastfeeding.

2 months for me
