I hear it can take a long time to come back while breastfeeding.

Cramping can mean you are cycling. You may not get a period but you still go through the cycle. Happened to me the whole time this last breastfeeding journey. I just got my first period after birth last week.

Might be worth bringing up to your OB. 9 months is a while.

@jaygirlsmommy, thank you. I didn’t know that it was normal.

@kambam no it's normal for breastfeeders to go without their period until they wean. I started weaning about 2 weeks ago and got my first post partum period last week.

@penneflower no problem hun. Enjoy it while it lasts. 😊

How annoying. I wasn't prepared for mine so soon but its been regular since so...? I guess thats cool lol @jaygirlsmommy

@kambam it's kind of scary not having it because you constantly question if your pregnant. Well at least I did. 😂 I was super paranoid.

My husband wants to just keep the oven open after this one and I’m secretly hoping breastfeeding will put my cycle off for a little while. If I tell him that breastfeeding will keep me from having my period he won’t want me to. He wants to have the babies real quick, be done and get snipped. I want a year between and 18 months if I have a csection. I want them close put this pregnancy hasn’t been easy.
