Question Did you..

Just wondering if anyone had any warning signs that af was about to return? If so, what were they?

The past week I've been feeling really tired, have a bit of nausea and are having a lot of cramping. Im just wondering if maybe af is going to return..

TIA.

Well, my AF came back at 6 weeks post partum (yep, i was fully breastfeeding every 2-3 hours round the clock, obviously prolactin doesn't bother my ovaries...) but i just suddenly bled. I didn't have cramps for at least 6 or 7 AF's, and i didn't have extra tiredness (how much more tired can you get than with a 6 week old anyway?) or nausea, but i never do.

I have to ask this - cramps + nausea + tiredness = is there any chance you're pregnant?

mine came back at 8 weeks, i got a lot of cramping for a few days, a day of spotting, then a day of nothing, and then *BAM* the b!tch was back (sorry, i'm kind of bitter about it, as i'm breastfeeding ). No nausea or tiredness (related to the AF lol), but that would have been usual for me.

Could you be pregnant?
