So now that I'm not breastfeeding anymore I'm dreading the return of Aunt Flo. When can I expect her to come visiting again?

I got it back at 8 months and was only feeding 2 x day then. I think it can vary quite a bit from person to person

1 = 2mos, skipped 3mos, then 4mos onwards
2 = 3mos
3 = 6mos (yep I was panicking!!)

With the first two I was exclusively bf. With the 3rd I hadn't introduced formula yet but she was on solids. I have no idea why it took longer to come back but I've been having nasty cramps since so something doesn't seem quite right.

I have only just had one, and Jack stopped his last breast feed about a month ago, have been slowly weaning for the last 2 months or so.

I still haven't got mine back yet and Caleb is nearly four months old. He has one or two bottles a day and the rest is BM.
