    I gave birth to my daughter nine weeks ago and have been bottle feeding since day 1. My periods haven't returned and am just wondering when other people's returned. I can't remember how long it took after my first daughter.

    Mine took 15 weeks, which I think is quite long but has been normal since (6 months after baby was born). I was bottle feeding as well.

    That's good to hear. Anyone I mentioned it too said that they had theirs back well before their six week check up so I was starting to wonder was something wrong. I might as well enjoy it while it lasts :D

    Its been 4 and a half years and i still didn't get mine, all thanks to the coil. :D

    With my first i got them back when she was around 9 months i breastfed till she was 2 and a half.

    with my second i got them back as clock work approx 4 -6 weeks went on the patch came off that at 7 months got pregnant 2 weeks later on first ovulation.
