It's been 9 weeks now, still nursing... 70-80% of the time. I was having some cramping the last few days, I thought for sure AF was coming, even made a trip to the pharmacy for tampons...but nothing yet..?

How did your first post natal AF go? Should I expect to cramp for a while?.. or... what?

I'm interested in this thread as well b/c I have been getting cramping and some slight spotting (about the size of an eraserhead once or twice a day, sorry if TMI) for about the past week now. My doc doesn't seem to think it's my period but it sounds like some of you gals did get yours while still nursing. I am pumping breastmilk for my preemie born in Nov. I was due Jan. 3.
