Breastfeeding Chartshttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/g/breastfeeding_charts/default.aspx<p>The return of fertility after childbirth is frequently delayed by breastfeeding. Once fertility does return, breastfeeding may have an impact on hormone levels, and thus, may cause some irregularity in the menstrual cycle. For women who have not had a menstrual period after childbirth and who are breastfeeding, determining the return of fertility in advance can be difficult. The best advice is to consider any day with cervical mucus potentially fertile, and to begin charting temperatures when mucus appears. </p> <p>The charts in this gallery are those of women who are currently breastfeeding. This section is for <strong>completed</strong> charts and not intended for questions. If you have questions concerning an incomplete chart feel free to share your chart in the Chart Question Gallery.

I usually get up once during the night to feed her, to temping is tricky. I thought it was an anovulation cycle until I saw my temps rise.Long Cycle, short LPhttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1574104.aspxTue, 15 May 2012 23:38:35 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1574104magpie0303872This is my first PP cycle and I am breastfeeding. This cycle was very long with a very short LP...6 months TTC -- BFP!!http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1545286.aspxTue, 06 Mar 2012 20:10:55 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1545286starrlight975We&#39;ve been TTC for six months, but my LP has been too short with lots of spotting. The longest LP I&#39;ve had was 8 days, but that was with several days of spotting beforehand. This cycle I also had lots of spotting, and nothing to indicate that it was different than my previous cycles. This cycle we cut back on DS&#39;s nursing. We now nurse only at naptime, bedtime, a couple times during the night, and in the morning before getting out of bed. So, it just goes to show it&#39;s how much you cut back in a 24-hour period. You don&#39;t have to just night-wean. My boy is 17 months old now. Can&#39;t wait to find out of he&#39;ll have a little brother or sister!Breastfeeding 19 month oldhttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1542350.aspxThu, 01 Mar 2012 14:02:03 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1542350mhw7603rd cycle after Mirena removal7 months PPhttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1535735.aspxThu, 16 Feb 2012 14:46:09 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1535735HereToDream2I was wondering what you guys think? It&#39;s my first cycle charting and I want to make sure I&#39;m doing things right. I&#39;ve also been having a few pregnancy symptoms and would like some assurance that I am indeed not pregnant. 2nd cycle post partum, breastfeeding 18 month oldhttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1525993.aspxFri, 27 Jan 2012 14:21:19 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1525993mhw760First postpartum cycle had only an 8 day LP, this cycle I took a good prenatal with 100mg B6. LP lengthened to 11 days. 18 month old breastfeeding quite a lot, cosleeping and bfing through the night several times No other meds15 mth baby breastfeedinghttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1512557.aspxSun, 01 Jan 2012 18:08:14 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1512557aprilrose4not sure if and when I ovulated, sometimes I got up earlier and later than other times but was unable to change the time (and save it ) on tcoyf. At one point she was sick and breastfed a ton which I think delayed ovulationFirst PP cycle, nursing 17 month old, Mirena removed CD1http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1506326.aspxFri, 16 Dec 2011 14:07:34 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1506326mhw760Mirena IUD removed CD1 of this cycle, took minipill for 2 weeks before switching to FAM only (around CD19). First postpartum cyclehttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1495942.aspxSat, 26 Nov 2011 01:15:29 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1495942starrlight973My first postpartum cycle was a little different than I expected. I ovulated a week later than I&#39;ve been used to and my luteal phase was extremely short. I used natural progesterone cream, but I don&#39;t know that it really helped me at all. I think it&#39;s probably because DS (15 months) still nurses quite a lot. We did TTC this cycle, but I think that was a bit pointless. Hopefully next cycle will be better!TTC, but seems unsuccessful this time round. Maybe my luteal phase is too short?http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1492881.aspxSat, 19 Nov 2011 17:11:14 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1492881ladyalissiya6I am not a 100% sure, but I think my luteal was far too short this time round. I even menstruated earlier than normal (my cycle is usually 40 days or so). Anyone this this has to do with breastfeeding my 22 month old still? I am not inclined to wean him as of yet (my goal is at least until his is 24 months old), but it does make me wonder if my hormones are still kinda crazy because of it. Oh well, maybe next time we will be successful. First Cycle BF 5mos. DShttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1491697.aspxThu, 17 Nov 2011 00:22:50 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1491697mclaybourn0This is my first real cycle postpartum BF DS fulltime. Ovulation took a little longer but my cycle looks pretty normal. My temps are all the same as pre-pg. Just wanted to share.2nd Cycle While BF 5mo. Old Full Time - Part 2http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1486968.aspxMon, 07 Nov 2011 22:13:33 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1486968mclaybourn4Here is my chart with Ovulation determined by temp only. Compared to previous charts my temps are really low for this to have been the O date. Guess I just have to wait and see what tomorrows temp will be. 2nd Cycle While BF 5mo. Old Full Timehttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1486715.aspxMon, 07 Nov 2011 15:46:53 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1486715mclaybourn3I have had one period since the birth of my DS. My temp was high this morning, 97.7 but I had been up about 1.5 hours before to nurse. After I took it, I went back to sleep and took it again about an hour later, temping at 97.5. So I know it is high and it wasn&#39;t a fluke temp. My question is why would it say that I O&#39;d on November 1st, that seems like quite a big lag time before my temp rose. And we are TTA right now. BFP 13 DPO, O CD 28http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1486174.aspxSun, 06 Nov 2011 12:49:33 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1486174gausley3Still nursing my 26 month old, twice during the day, and once or twice at night. We are over the moon for the second and planning to tell the family during thanksgiving:)Breastfeeding 12 month old, cycle after first menses, delayed O, short LPhttp://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1486005.aspxSat, 05 Nov 2011 21:39:47 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1486005Sausages0I&#39;m breastfeeding my 12 month old son and this is the first cycle i have had following my first AF bleed. I think i actually O&#39;ed a little earlier than the CD28 it is pinned at - maybe CD24?
