With each of my three children, I got my periods back by the time they were 6
months old. They were all exclusively breastfed without supplements or
bottles, but they all slept through the night quite early (6wks, 8wks and 3
wks respectively). I assumed that that was the reason that I started cycling
again so early. However, I was always quite irregular from puberty until
after I weaned #3 -- go figure.
