Hi all
I have a 9 month old, I'm still breastfeeding and my periods have not returned. I had a light period when my baby was 3 months old but nothing since! Me and my husband would like to try for another baby but because I don't have a cycle I don't know when my best time to concieve is!
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks
CJ

if you do not have a period then you don't ovulate, so you can't get pregnant. it may be due to the fact that you are breast feeding. in some woman, breast feeding keeps them from ovulating. so, either wait a little while longer, or wing your baby off of breast feeding.
