First Period Postpartum

More of a general wondering, although I’m hoping it doesn’t come back for a while yet, as I’ve not missed it 😂 When should I expect to come on? I can’t remember from the last time after having my 2 year old how quickly I came on, I seem to think it was around 8 weeks? Im 6 weeks PP today, but I’m also breastfeeding, and I’ve heard that can change when this happens too! I’ve also still got massive reduction in the hairs on my legs/armpits etc which I’m grateful for, not having to shave as often 😂

I breastfed for a year and my period didn’t start til I stopped. I’ve noticed less hair too! I don’t remember that from last time.

My periods have restarted once weening began as I wasn’t breastfeeding so much! As for less hair that would be the dream 🤣 just thankful I’m fair or I’d be mistaken for a man!

I breastfed for 17 months with my first and didn’t get my period until I stopped!

I breastfed for 26 months, period came back at 20 months, got pregnant again 2 periods later 😁

@Linda @Gemma @Jess @Claudia thank you all! Forgot to say, with my first, I didn’t breastfeed, so this is really interesting! Thank you xx

With my first I EBF & my periods never stopped. & had them monthly regularly x
