AF and breastfeeding
If you breastfed, or pumped, how soon after delivery did you get AF?
I've heard it could be several months.

Re: AF and breastfeeding
With Ella, it was six months - which was soon after I stopped BFing (though I was formula and BFing/pumping).
Erik's only a month old, so we'll see.

Re: AF and breastfeeding
I wasn't one of the lucky ones. I got AF exactly 6 weeks after DD was born and I EBF for 10 months with AF showing up monthly

I feel your pain. Six months of EBF and AF rears her ugly head all the time.
