I was on depo before and bleed for 6 months, now that was before 2 kids. my son is 4 weeks old and bfeeding and I know I can use depo while breast feeding. now my question is should I expect the same reaction again or could it be differant?

When I had my daughter almost four years ago, I went back on Depo. I did spot for the first six weeks or so; but I also was not breastfeeding, so my doctor gave me a week worth of Premarin to stop the bleeding. With you breastfeeding, I don't think you will be able to take Premarin. You may spot this time, you may not, it's just a game of wait and see.
