I went to my mums last weekend (got back last night) and the day after i got there i got my first AF. I have been really stressed a few days leading up to this. Do you think that can contibute to it starting?

In a way i wanted it to come back so we could think of baby number 2. but then as soon as i got it i have started getting really upset that bethany is gonna want to stop feeding soon and that AF has come back because shes dropped some of her feeds. Am i being silly? lol

Mine returned at 9months. I was really stressed for several days / weeks leading up to it (I even had a massive rant at my boss as well) then AF turned up. I don't think it is a cause of it returning more a sympton. It almost felt like it was the 18months of not PMT all coming back in one go, if that makes any sense what so ever.
