if your just bottle feeding typically it comes back within a few weeks, although it can vary some too depending on the person!

It can vary a lot especially if you are breastfeeding, if you are exclusively breastfeeding it may not come back for months, however I was one of the unlucky ones that exclusively breast fed and still got my first AF within a few weeks of stopping bleeding from having the baby, I usually got my first one within 7-8 weeks of having the baby! but like i said it could be anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. Good luck
