...i got my first postpartum period at 6 months (same as with my first.) that was at the end of january. i haven't had another one since. i was very regular after my first baby was born, every 28 days like clockwork just like i had always been. i've already tested and i'm not pregnant (knew i wasn't anyways, but wanted to rule it out.) is it possible to get your period back and then for it to go away again? his nursing habits never changed or anything...

Interesting!

But I am sure it's possible.

Bumping
yes it is.

When I was nursing my youngest Af returned at 6weeks and came every 2-3 weeks until she was 3months old. Then it disappeared for 6months. It came back for 4(normal 30 day cycles). Then it disappeared for 4 months. It seemed the more I nursed the more often AF came, the less I nursed the longer it disappeared for.

At the same time on a baby board of mine, a gal who's son was born the same day as my dd and was bf'ing had almost the exact same strange cycles I did. Ironically our kids(will be 4 on Mon) had the same digestive issues, similar intolerances to foods and the same personalities.
