Irregular period breastfeeding i think I'm pregnant again

So my lo is 13 weeks now. About four weeks ago I had my period, and now I am four weeks late. I still have not had my period. I know you can be irregular when breastfeeding but I never have, except when pregnant. I took five pregnancy tests all negative, but I can't help but think I'm pregnant for sure! Help! I'm not used to this. I'm five days late!

Irregular period after sterilization

Irregular Period

by Adrianna

I understand it is common to have irregular periods while breastfeeding, but I'd like to know if what I'm going through is similar to anyone else.

I started to bleed or spot; I don't know what it exactly was, at 6 Months. I have been exclusively breastfeeding for a year now.

After that it was no period that month, then spotting the next, no period, then actually a period, then another period (which was ridiculously heavy like never before), and then a tiny trace of blood the next time (which was my last).

Anyone else go through this? Thank you.

Irregular period during breastfeeding

Period return but irregular

by Amaka
(Inglewood)

I gave birth on 20th Aug 2011, and I am breastfeeding my child but my menstrual period returned on 14th Nov and am surprised to see another menses by Nov 28th. Is it normal?

Could I be pregnant or just irregular period?

I had my first menstruation when my baby was 2month old. Then I had my menstruation on a monthly basis. But this month I am worrying because up to now I don't have my period yet.

We are using condoms during sex. I am worried. I haven't used a pregnancy test hoping on having my period for this month. The first day of period was April 22.

Hope you could give me advice. Thanks!

Irregular bleeding breastfeeding 12 month old

by Megan
(Charleston, SC)

I am currently still nursing my almost 13-month-old baby girl.

Well for the past three cycles I've noticed I have spotted two to three days before my normal period starts.

Well this time around it was the 2-3 days of spotting before, and my cycle went completely off on Friday, and now it's Sunday, and I went to use the bathroom, and I see blood again... trying not to stress has anyone else have this problem.

Hi all,

After I had my son, I was pumping and on the mini pill. It was making me feels nuts, and I was bleeding every week.

I bled July 19-24 then July 29/30
August 3-5
August 20-25 (faint positive on the 20th later that day "period started)
Now-Sept 3-????

I'm breastfeeding and pumping not taking anything BC wise.

What should I do ??

More than one period in one month

by Melissa

I am exclusively breastfeeding, and my baby is about three months.

After I stopped postpartum bleeding, I started my period a week later. Then the following month I had a period, and after it ended I started a week again later! I DO NOT want to have my period this often! Any advice??

Has anyone else had the opposite problem?

Hi, I have been nursing for 12 months. I got my period at six months, and they were very regular. I am a week late, and the pregnancy test is negative. Can nursing cause irregularity after months of regular cycles?

calcium and magnesium for regulating periods

by Fatemeh S
(LA CA)

My periods came back 16 months postpartum and have been irregular at between 35-40 days.

I see you have tried or found info regarding supplementing with calcium and magnesium to help regulate. Can you point me in the direction of the findings? I happen to actually already have the calcium and magnesium & primrose oil supplement too. So, I will start this tomorrow!! Thank you
