Hello ladies! So question- I'm 10 weeks PP Wednesday and I still haven't had my TOM restart, I'm not breast feeding and I started my pill 7 weeks PP- is it normal not to have it yet?? DH and I have been super careful when dtd which hasn't even happened a handful of times so I doubt I'm pregnant but there's always that small freaked out part of me that worries

    I am 8 weeks pp and haven't had one either but I have PCOS and have never had regular periods anyway. I am not on birth control yet, (I will be this coming Thursday) and we're pretty careful but part of me freaks at the possibility of having another baby in 9 months! Lmbo at least if it happens I'd be done having babies lol :)

    I'm sure it's normal, lots of stuff has gone on with our bodies pretty recently :)

    I'm 16 weeks PP and no TOM yet (I'm breastfeeding, though).

    I read that if you aren't breastfeeding, your period usually returns sometime between 3 -12 weeks PP.

    I am 8 weeks PP and haven't had mine either. I have never been regular either. I also can't remember how long it was before I started when I had my son. I am not breastfeeding exclusively its more like I am formula feeding and supplementing with one feeding of breastmilk a day.

    22 weeks PP and I've been formula feeding for a month now and still not TOM. I'm not worried, I'm enjoying it while I can =D With that said, I started back on the pill a week after giving birth and we are all about condoms right now. Kind of makes me feel like I'm a teenager again...lol.

    I combination fed my 1st for about 12 weeks, and then he was on formula. I went back on the pill when he was about 16 weeks old and hadn't had TOM yet.

    I combi fed my 2nd too for the same amount of time (I have poor supply, wanted to BF exclusively) and TOM came back about 15 weeks pp.

    A friend who exclusively breastfed both her babies got TOM back after a month pp each time. We're all different!

    I'm also nursing, 20 week pp, no TOM either. I think even the same woman can have a difference experience with each pregnancy.
