8 months both times, right when I started dropping a pump or two during the day (kids slept through the night already)

22 months. I had one period and then got pregnant after 6 weeks after that (I knew the conception date as sex was VERY infrequent ).
My milk dried up a few months into my pregnancy. My toddler / preschooler never showed any interest in it again. Not even when I was breastfeeding her baby brother.

Between 12 and 13 months postpartum both times.
(I stopped breastfeeding at 18 months for one and 14 months fir the other so it wasn’t related.)

About a year. I was taking the mini pill but I started getting breakthrough bleeding at a year that didn’t quit until I weaned and went back on the regular pill.

Yeah, I don't know why they recommend EBF as a form of BC for 6 months. Even if it takes 6 months to come back, you can ovulate before you bleed.

After difficult vaginal birth and needy baby, DH did not take off work - 6 months
After failed induction, uneventful C section, easier baby, DH took time off - 6 weeks

7 months and 8 months. EBF, but started pumping at 4 and 6 months when I went back to work so could be related to that or starting solid foods. Breastfed to 2 years old with both.
