    Periods After Delivery
    Hi... thanks for your time

    I delivered in Jun 07, and my baby is 7 months old now. I had periods, little on heavier side, only ONCE. It has been more almost two months now that I have not had periods.

    I am breastfeeding.

    Is this normal. Please suggest.

    Breastfeeding will delay the return of your period usually until your child starts to nurse less. With both of my kids my period did not return until they were about 10 months old. However everyone's body reacts differently. Once your period does return your schedule may be a little erratic since you are still nursing and your hormones are not yet back to normal. If you are really concerned about the length of time since your last period, call your doctor. With a 7 month old, the last thing you need is another worry zapping your strength.
