AF has decided to resume her monthly visits and I'm only 5 weeks post-partum. I'm exclusively breastfeeding TWO babies, my newborn who feeds every 2-3 hours and my toddler who feeds 2-3 times a day. I don't pump or use a soother and have enough milk to feed an army, and still she returns. She returned after 8 weeks with my first. Both were 2 weeks after the lochia stopped. Aren't I lucky?
As much as this sucks, the good news is I know that I have to use some form of birth control if I don't want another baby and I don't have to wonder for months if the lack of AF is due to breastfeeding or if I'm pregnant again.
Anyone else want to whine about AF's visits?

| My periods started way early, too! I couldn't believe it, I had a period toward the end of February and Connor was born the end of January! They're pretty erratic, well, maybe they aren't, I was on the pill so long, I don't know how they're supposed to be and I never got a chance to find out when I went off, I got pregnant so fast. I have to say, I sure did NOT miss those periods... I'd forgotten what a pain they are!

That sucks! DD is 7.5 months and my period is still no where in sight. I know a lot of moms though who got their period right away even though they were bfing.
