I stopped bleeding after giving birth over 4 weeks ago and no period yet. Is that normal?
And I'm definately NOT pregnant.

are you BFing? If so, you may not get a period. Also, your hormones are still changing, so you might miss & skip a month. Don't stress Chat Icon

Are you counting after you stopped bleeding from giving birth?

I'm not breastfeeding. I just thought it was strange for me NOT to get it back right away. But if it happened to you gals, then I guess its normal. Thanks. It can stay away for a while, I don't miss it. ha haChat Icon

I didn't BF and got mine almost six weeks to the day after, but it could take longer. It can depend on whether your cycle was regular to begin with too.

i nurse and its been 4 months since she was born and no period plus im on birth control with no hormones so i thought i would get it by now but someone said if you BF you probably dont get it till you stop.
