First PP Period while BFing...
What was your first PP period like? I thought I was getting mine yesterday (I'm 7 months PP) and I started spotting (old blood) and then it just stopped. Nothing after that, just felt crampy. If this wasn't a period, what was it? Is my body just gearing up to start a cycle?

Re: First PP Period while BFing...
I'm 5 months PP (still BFing) and recently got my AF back...I was cramping all last week with no signs of her and she showed up Sunday. First two days were moderate, like 'old times' with great cramps . It stopped the 3rd day and back again today - but that is what it was like before getting pregnant.
Maybe it is your body getting ready? That's what I thought about mine, but like I said it only paused and then continued. HTH!

Re: First PP Period while BFing...
I got mine a few weeks ago at 8 months pp. But I did have a few episodes of spotting in the months before hand. I wasn't sure if that was it or not either! But in the end, when it came I knew. It was lighter and shorter than it had been pre-pregnancy and not painful. But I don't know if that's just a fluke since I've only had one.

Re: First PP Period while BFing...
I got mine Tuesday! I felt crampy the day before-tolerable. Then Tuesday morning I felt crampy again and Aunt Flow showed up. I'm 19 weeks PP.
Sorry to hijack your post... Can I now track my cycles with the ovulation monitor or should I hold off another 2/3 months?
