First AF when breastfeeding

[Spudtastic]

Hello.

With dd1 I ebf until I introduced solids at 6months. Dd1 was also a guzzle guts. Holy cow did she drink a lot. She was still on hourly feeds through the night at 9 months (yes sicker for punishment me). AF showed 10.5 months pp.

So dd2 is 9.5 weeks. She drinks much less. She goes for 3 hours at night without a feed and when she drinks 5 minutes on one side is enough.
So

I'm just wondering whether to expect AF sooner because of it.

What's your experience?

My baby was feeding every 3 hours at a maximum day and night with cluster feeds still when my periods came back. First was at 6 weeks 2 days, second at 12 weeks 3 days, third at 16 weeks.
