Hey, I have stopped bfing and am just wondering how long it should be until I get AF. I started running my supply down 3 weeks ago but it didn't stop completely till about 2 days ago.

Not sure, I think its different for everyone. I got mine about 3 weeks back while I was still BF full time!

Different for everyone but won't be far away.

I got mine on Elle's 1st birthday...12mths to the day! Was (am) still breastfeeding though.

Hopefully your lucky and it doesn't come back for ages

I stopped bf when Gina was 6 months old and got af 2 weeks later. I had reduced down the bf for a couple of weeks before stopping. I think it can vary quite a bit though between different women.

With Andrew I wasn't exclusive BF him and finally gave it up at 5 months and didn't get AF back till he was 7 months I think. Josh i'm still BF him morning and night and have just started that and she isn't back yet.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
