Grrrr (TMI Alert)

Peach is barely a month and a half, and I'm breastfeeding exclusively, yet, I just got my period. I am extremely upset! I only finished my post-pardum bleeding two weeks ago!

That was just a wee bit on the TMI; nevertheless, I feel for ya, kiddo.

I feel ya. All my friends with their babies had like a year with no periods, and me, at most 3 months. I never get the good part of breastfeeding

Now that I think about it, I've only had my period for 4 months out of the last 3.5 years. Wow.
I guess I'm one of those mythical women! I think my ovaries are lazy...

Well, at least you know your body is working the way it should, even though it's not much fun.

It's probably not an "official" period yet, just more lochia. I bled and then stopped and then started bleeding for a few weeks after having my daughter and then I went for over a year with no period. ( Yeah!) So you might end up like me and not haven another period again for awhile after this one.

My kids were exactly one month old to the day when I got my periods. I was breastfeeding, but not exclusively. However, my mother breastfed exclusively and she got her period when my brother and I were each exactly one month old.
