Back so soon?  

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 


Apparently the average time for a lactating mom's period to return is 14 months. My dd has never had a bottle or pacifier and I have an abundant milk supply.

And that old witch came to visit at 7 1/2 weeks. Guess I shouldn't be surprised, since she returned at the same time with my first. I can still be ticked though, can't I? :

Ugh! Sorry, I would be ticked too!

Wow...I can't believe the average is 14 months! : Sorry yours is a quick returner.

I'm usually about 4-6 months. Sorry you're such an early one!

Ahem, I can empathize, since mine came back at 6 weeks, then I got two more within 1.5 months or so. Apparently that's completely normal. *sigh*

Oh man! That sucks. I am expecting mine to come back early, as well, even though I am now nursing two! It came back pretty early with DD#1.

Before I got pregnant with DD#1 I took birth control pills that made my period come only four times a year-- I LOVED it, but I can't do that again until the girls are done nursing I am such a grumpy pants about my period!

Mine came back 4 weeks pp.

Just think of it as being super-fertile!

I got mine back at 5 months with dd. I was pissed.

Just so you know, sometimes it comes back once or locia makes a return, and then nothing for months.

Aw, man! I think as of this morning I might be joining this club, too, at 10 weeks. Hopefully it's just a fluke, but I'm not counting on it. Blah.
