The symptoms will likely be very similar to those experienced before you became pregnant, cramping, breast tenderness, etc. If they were minor previous to your pregnancy, they may remain minor.

Getting your period after stopping breastfeeding will be very much like the periods you had pre-pregnancy. Bloating, cramping and food cravings, as well as tender breast are common symptoms of your period starting in the near future. In addition you may notice a discharge and that you are more tired.

Not medical Advice: Like all menstral cycles it follows with cramping,bloating and cravings. It is also a sign when you have tenderness of the breast area.
