tell me about your 1st pp AF

[bluedaisy]

I just got mine yesterday - dd is 13 months - and she's been acting really "off" this week. Her sleep has been terrible and she's been up in the middle of the night several times. Is it possible my hormonal changes could be affecting her in some way?

did you get regular again right away?

was it different than before you got pg? I also have no cramps and I ALWAYS get terrible cramps - i'm hoping it lasts!

My first pp af was really light and short. I don't remember if dd's behavior changed before it, so if it did the changes were minor.

I am still not regular (1st pp af was @15 months dd is now 22 months) and my cramps are less while my mood swings are more. My flow also seems heavier to me.

With my recent baby, first PP AF was at seven months. Very, very heavy and painful. Then no AF for another 5 months. They started out heavy but have tapered off somewhat to the way they were before I had kids.

I got my first period when my daughter was 10 months, and she got her 1st tooth the same day!

I had my first PP period at 10 months. I was pretty surprised because DS is an all night nurser.

Anyway, it was short and light and I didn't have any cramps but I have never had such intense moods in my life. I was feeling homicidal.

3 periods later and they are heavier, still fairly painless (YAY) and my moods are a bit more manageable.
