My baby is 14 months old and I still haven't got my period yet. I breastfed for 5 months and then at 5 months got an IUD put in. I do know if your Brest feeding it can cause you not to have it for a while but you can also get preg. while breastfeeding so if I were you. I'd maybe get a test just in case.

If you are breastfeeding, you will probably not get your period for several months, until your baby is taking other foods. Some women do not have a period at all while breastfeeding. Your hormones are probably still undergoing some changes, and that may be a reason that your period has not returned yet. If you are concerned that you may be pregnant, or if you are not breastfeeding and your period still has not returned, let your doctor know. Please keep us posted.
