Bit of a shock......(af & q's)
in Baby
..............to wake up this morning to my first af in 17 months!!!
I'm still breastfeeding but woke up this morning and am very dissapointed that af has returned.
Could it be a one-off due to stress or is that it for me now till I (fingers crossed) fall pregnant again one day?
Louise is 7 months now and is having 3 solid meals a day so i'm guessing is taking less milk and thats why they've returned?
A q for those who have breastfed (or still are) and had quite a while between giving birth and first af - sould I expect this one to be longer than normal? Could they be irregular while i'm still breastfeeding?
Thanks

He was having 5 feeds and 3 meals a day at that time, although i think what spurred them on was the fact that Rhys had been poorly and was hardly taking any milk and then 2 weeks later it started!
My af's only last a few days now and are no longer painful like before. My lo is now 9 1/2month on 2/3 bfs a day and are still not regular like before and are around every 5 weeks atm!
HTH xx
Louise was pooly last week and had a lot less milk for a couple of days - I did express but I'm guessing it might not have helped.
Louise is having 4 or 5 feeds a day depending if we're out in the morning or not as she can get from morning to lunchtime without a feed if she's occupied and travelling but only to 10.30/11 if we're at home!
fingers crossed babybear that mine only last a few days then!
After my first baby they came back after 12 months but within a month i was pregnant again, then after my second they came back after 11 months and i got pregnant within 8wks so only had af 3 times in since conceieving my first child in May 2005 - guess i've been lucky xxxxx
It's a real shock to the system isnt it! Take care. xxx
