Depends on the person I guess, what happened with your mum? Genetics might play a part too?

My mum got hers back at 4 months, but she was doing both FF and BF for the first 3 months, then just FF after that.

I had mine at 7 weeks for 2 weeks after getting depo, then nothing, now am on mini pill and nothing since although the doctor said it would come back most likely.

I suppose the reason it comes back later, generally might be that they feed less, I think just because she is doing a long stretch over night won't make it come back iykwim.

How many feeds do you do in a day and how far apart are they generally?

We demand feed here and Lily does anywhere from 8-10 feeds in 24 hours. Usually about 2.5 hours apart day & night, though her nights vary with a 5 hour stretch, or a 4 hour, 3 hour... etc.
