Hi there lurking from DIS

From my personal experience and I breastfed all my kids. With my 1st AF showed exactly 28 days after my PPAF, with my 2nd 56 days after PPAF, with my 3rd about 8 weeks and with my last 8 months! It varied a lot lol so I wouldn't plan on her showing or not when your baby is 8 months. It may come before or after

By the way you have beautiful kids

So far, mine came back at 8-12 weeks with my first(not sure if 8 weeks was AF or not) with my second it came back at 4.5 months. So far I am 9.5 weeks pp haven't gotten it yet this time, so I am thinking longer for each time for me :shrugs

I was coming on here to ask this exact question! Weird!! Lance has been sleeping through the night for the past 4 nights, so I guess he is working on night weaning if he hasn't done it already. I wouldn't mind feeding him in the middle of the night, it would definitely help with the pain of engorgement, but I'm certainly not going to wake him up to eat...that's his job, he's gotta wake me up for that! Logan started sleeping though the night at the same time (almost 2 months) and PPAF showed up at almost 6 months. So it will be interesting to see if it is similar this time around.

After my first,ppaf came at 7 months. After my second about 12 months; third, 13 months; fourth, 14 months; fifth, 14 months and sixth, still no ppaf at almost 17 months. All were being bf when ppaf came back. Garrett is still wanting to wake and nurse at night. I figure that is why it is taking so long this time.

With both of my boys PPAF showed between 5-6 months. Preston I only BF until he was nearly 6 months & with Grant I BF a full year.
Preston was not a night nurser & Grant nursed around the clock, so I guess my body each time was just ready to start all over again LOL

PPAF vibes coming your way!!!!!

I wanted to add, that my first PPAF came within weeks of babies sleeping through the night for more than once a week. Since M has already hit that milestone, I am thinking that mine may return soon, of course he does nurse SO often during the day, that might keep it away(with an 8 hour shift of no feeding at night, he still eats 9-12 times in 24hours

)

I"m also interested to see when PPAF comes back this time. She came back at 7 months with Asher, but the first cycle was 3 months long, so when we started ttc when ASher was 9 months it was just about the right timing. We plan on ttc at about 10 months this time, so hopefully she won't take any longer this time around to start her regular visits.

1st came back at 10 months, 2nd 9 months, had nod ppaf from third to fourth. Still nursing 4th, he is 21 1/2 months and yet to have ppaf.

With Alex it came AF returned at 7 months. Julianna is 10 and a half months and no sign of AF yet. I'm not getting any fertile mucous signs at all. She can stay away for as long as she likes since we don't plan on getting pg anytime soon.
