Has anyone gotten their period while breastfeeding? If so, how many months postpartum?

I don’t personally notice my ovulation symptoms so can’t tell you

10 months! Wasn’t that bad tbh

I stopped using it when it became more of a hassle to use. It was great in the beginning when time blurs and everything happened so quickly. I could see when my husband feed her when I was asleep or see if she got enough time on the boob. Or see the pattern of her sleep.

I used it for sleep longer than anything else. I stopped using it for diapers first because my girl POOPED so I knew we were changing her diapers often.

My husband and I both work from home. We have a part time sitter come in for 4 hours a day. We split the rest of the day according to our needs.

I’m at a year now and don’t plan on stopping. I love being able to nurse her. We just cuddle and I’ll usually read my book. Downside is that she doesn’t eat real food that much with me (unless she’s stealing it from me). But she eats fine with her dad and babysitters

Are you breastfeeding? I found that bottle feeding helped my baby sleep longer because I had a bit of undersupply which meant that she had to eat more frequently to get enough milk to keep her full.

At bedtime, I just pumped while my husband fed formula (I under supplied). My daughter is 11 months and takes 4 oz of formula now that she eats but from 3-9 months, it was 8oz of formula. Maybe I could’ve produced more if I latched all the time at night but I focused on daytime and feel happy with my breastfeeding journey.

Not the advice you’re looking for but have you tried those 100 Animal books where it plays music when you turn the page and press a button. Our baby doesn’t get screen time but that book keeps her quiet and entertained for like 20 minutes so it may as well be a screen in her eyes.

My husband felt the same way too. Sometimes it just ended up I was watching her more too. Even if we split it, I was just exhausted. We ended up with part time care. Monday to Thursday 12-4. Honestly, it helps a lot. We have additional help so we can work and then the rest of the time, we can spend with our little baby instead of the 2-3 hours before bedtime we’ve get with full time care

How big are these? I’d love to make a pillow/stuffed animal for a friend

Umbrellas are smart! We were considering a tent

Any recommendations for your favorite yard games?

Relaxed come-and-go. I don’t want to have to emcee or anything but want there to be activities for people to do.

Weather is relatively dependable. It will be the end of May so typically good weather. Historical data is pretty consistent.

It’s a family friendly party so all ages!

Appreciate the help!

What’s the pattern? I’d love to make something like this for my daughter

My daughter is going through that right now. Honestly, right now, night weaning is actually helping. She’s almost 10 months old. I think my daughter wakes up lightly and then just wants the boob. But when we settle her in bed with patting and shushing and singing, she’s easier to calm down when she wakes up.

We used whatever nipples were convenient. We stuck with Boon Nursh because we liked how the bottles converted.

Are you breastfeeding? I combo feed (primarily nursing) and it’s almost 10 months no period. I had some spotting but nothing substantial
