Baby #2 had lochia for 2 weeks. Got 3 weeks off, period like clockwork, but started him on solids at 4.5 months, since he already had teeth. Breastfed for 16 months.
Baby #3 had minor spotting for 1 week. Got a year off. Exclusively breastfed her for 18 months. (my only daughter)
Baby #4 had lochia for a few days. Got 6 months off. Still exclusively breastfeeding at almost 8 months. Cycle was 40 days, lasting 10 days. Good times.
