I just want to shout out to my boobs (and my bf’ing daughter) because for 7 months postpartum, they have kept me menstruation free. That’s right, sisters, I have not had HELL appear in my lower abdomen in the form of death-cramps for 17 months.
And since I am anti-medication, especially painkillers, especially while breastfeeding, this is a VERY good thing.
Dear breasts,
I love you.
And keep it up or I’ll shove you in that too-small push up bra and do that boob-jiggling dance I’ve wanted to try since seventh grade.

ughh I’m bf’ing too but have had my period a few times, including today and think I may be dying of cramps today…
But yay boobs for delaying it as long as they did (about 6 or 7 months. Too crampy to do math right now. Even easy math.)
I’m so glad my nads don’t write back.
Woo Hoo! I was one of the super lucky ones who didn’t get a period for 13 months postpardum. (Which is not to say that my fertility didn’t return, I still had cycles, they just didn’t involve camps or backaches or blood). Two full years of being periodless was AWESOME. Yay for mik producing boobs!
