I didn't have one until 4 months after my 1st baby. I never had one after my 2nd because I got pregnant when she was 8 months old. And, didn't get one back until 10 months after my 3rd baby. I b___stfed all of them... sometimes that makes a difference. There's just no telling because everyone gets a period back at a different time. I definitely think you should test now, though, to rule that out! Good luck!

thanks for answering....I tested once back on the 23rd but, it was negetive. I also didn't b___stfeed either because she didn't want to cooperate with me so, we just bottle fed her. I sure hope I'm not pregnant though it's just hard to remember to use protection everytime considering we didn't use any for over a year because we were trying to get pregnant and now that we aren't trying to get pregnant we have to remember to use something to keep us from getting pregnant...ugh...oh well...if I am it's ok we will handle it the best we can but if I'm not I have got to remember to put a note on the ceiling or on the wall to help remind me when we get in the mood to do it....not to mention dh gets so excited to do it he sometimes forgets too but i think secretly he wants to try for number 2 already...(he's already mentioned my moods were happier and better while being pregnant then when i'm not ).=)

HAHA...RIGHT...well, I tested twice and both tests are negetive with a hpt. Right now I am not doing anything..no spotting or anything but, I have cramped off and on but, very small ones and it could be gas considering I have been drinking a lot of cokes here lately...but, right now I'm not too worried about it considering as long as we remember from this point on to use condoms then I should have nothing to worry about. I am also giving myself until May to start my period and if I don't have one or at least a consistant flow then I'll let my ob know considering I will be seeing him in May anyways for my regular annual Pap smear. What do u think? do u think it's a good idea for me to wait that long, considering before I got pregnant I was very irregular anyways so my body could be going back to what it used to be...my periods were pretty much non-exsistant. Oh, and by the way does anyone else know if you can get plan b over the counter now or do u need a prescription? i think i saw it on the shelf at CVS but it was a card that looked like u had to take it to the pharmacy to get it and sign for it like the sudafed...anyone have any idea? thanks!
