Does weaning delay ovulation?

[Quinn31]

I went down to once a day breastfeeding last week. Today is day 13 of my cycle and I haven't gotten a positive opk yet. My cycle is only 26 days normally so I feel like this is strange. Plus I've always gotten a positive on day 13 at the latest. They're not even getting slightly darker. Could my fluctuating hormones from weaning affect this?

Possibly- every woman is different. That was not my experience. Are you taking any supplements?

Ahhh...I wish I knew! My almost 3 yr old still has not weaned! He loves it so much I just can't cut him off
I would say that if you are doing the LE diet your cycle will most likely change.

Thanks so much for the responses. The only thing I'm doing different is a probiotic. The other supplements are ones I took when swaying blue last pregnancy. This is my first month trying and I'm soooo nervous and uncertain about everything!!

Yes, BF changes your hormones.

not likely, but possible. what else is going on?

I finally got a positive on day 15. Strange but this was my first cycle I tracked since my af returned in May. Things may have changed since my last pregnancy. Hopefully I won't have to do this too much longer!

nothing unusual about positive on CD 15.

Many people have different cycles after having a baby.
