With my first, it was almost 2 years before it came back, and with my second it was just over 2 years.

20 months pp for me...after each girl was born.  I was so amazed that it was exactly the same both times!

Exactly 21 months for me. I didn't have another period for 8 weeks after that. For me the return of fertility has been slow.I figure that my body knows what it can handle.

13months for me. But I took 1 clomid pill, and o'd a week later. Some people say it's fluke but I believe it encouraged something that was just about ready to happen regardless.

20 months for me :)  Baby was exclusively breastfed and nursed AT A BARE MINIMUM every 2 hours around the clock until he was 18 months.

2.5y, 18m, and then 8 months for the last one. So certainly a wide range for me!

~28 mos, around the time I night-weaned DS.

Still aren't regular - they come every 3 weeks, and stay for 10 days. Ugh.

My DS is almost 15m and no AF in sight around here. I'm kinda hating the suspense at this point.

DS- 4 months (but he was preterm, spent time in NICU, and had a lot of trouble nursing at breast at first, so lots of pumping. Right about the time he was finally nursing well, I had to go back to work full time, so more pumping/bottles of EBM)

 

DD1- 19 months

 

DD2- 10 months
