After 3 Years MIA af is back! Have a ?

post #1 of 5

Hi! I just got af back yesterday After almost 3 Years. What can I expect now while still nursing? Low supply? She kept switching sides a lot and complained that it was empty. :-( i don't want her to wean yet.

What are periods like while nursing? Irregular?

Tia Mamas!

Well, I usually notice my period's coming if by nothing else than DD will nurse and switch and nurse and switch over and over. It seems like she's not getting alot, but wants to try the other side thinking there will be more. My supply drops a day or two before and stays low until maybe day 3 or so. I don't know how other momma's period are, but mine have become very regular. I was incredibly irregular pre-DD, though, so that's probably not a great comparison.
