Its natures way ofmaking sure that you are ready to have another baby, naturally spaces it out, health advice is towait 18 months between babies so its helping youout.I loved the freedom of not having periods,was sad when they returned.

I had my first period last month, about a month after I started giving Austin solids.

Mine didn't come back till 11 months.

Hate my periods, even though have only had 3 in 3 years and 3 months coz of pregnancys and breast feeding!!
