so i am 5months pp and still EBF my husband and i are not using any birth control we never have and it took 6yrs to concieve our beautiful little girl..  After i had my daughter when i fed her i could feel the contacting uterus, lately i am feelingthat stongly again.  i have posted befor thinking i was prego again but was convinced that it was hormones. Each time i bf i feel cramping in my uterus .  does this continue to happen until i quit bf?  i guess i never noticed it until the last few weeks it became noticably strong. is this normal? and all i want to eat is fruit- which i was addicted to the first trimester of my last pregnancy.  ok so also EBF having intercourse was very dry.......not anymore i am more in the mood again and things are back to normal also having more CM hm.....should i expect to see AF? i don't kno whats going on can someone please help this was my first baby so i'm still learning~! thank goodness for this site it's so helpful!!!!!!

All of your symptoms are very normal.  Feeling your uterus contract while BFing is definitely a normal healthy sign...and yes, it will continue until you stop BFing.  I don't know what eating alot of fruit has to do with anything : ), but that is a GOOD thing!   Your period can come at anytime, but most likely after you stop BFing.  You're doing great!

the comment about eating fruit comes from my craving during first trimester of my pregnancy, i wasn't sure with other symptoms that i could possibly be pregnant again.  as we are not using bc but again i think that it's all hormonal SOOOOoooooooo not looking forward to seeing AF LOL i love not having to worry about that :D thanks for your comment PamelaBee~!~! this site rocks~!
