No Period After Breastfeeding And Stopping Mini Pill

ddunn - May 9

Hi! I gave birth via a C-section last August. At my 6 week check my OB put me on Micronor. I br___tfed from August to March and took the pill until mid-April. I still do not have a period. Am I making too much of this? Is this normal? I am fearful that the pill would delay my period more, even though all the literature I have read on it says it will not. My husband and I would like to start trying for Baby #2 ASAP but with no period, I guess it is unlikely at this point. Any advice/comments would be so helpful! Diana

When I got off micronor, it took a little over 2 months to get my period. Also, you CAN get pregnant without a period. When I stopped b___stfeeding my 4th child, I did not understand why I did not get my period (I b___stfed without a period for a year). It turned out that I was pregnant! I did not have a period at all. You can ovulate without getting a period, thus you can become pregnant. I would give it at least a couple more months to see if your body adjusts. If after that you still don't have your period, you doc could probably give you something to get it. Good luck!
