I have a 3 month old baby. When she was about 1 month and 2 week I had my first regular period since birth. However, the next month I didn't get it. I've been breastfeeding the whole time, and my husband and I have tried to be very careful, although there was one slip up right around the time that i could have ovulated following my period, but I've had 2 pregnancy tests around the time I should have started and both were negative. Aside from the pregnancy and births of my 4 children i've had a fairly regular cycle, so, how common is it to completely miss you period due to breastfeeding? I'm currently on progesterone only pills (for the last three weeks) for birth control, but the information that came with it seemed to indicate that they might make you bleed more, rather than less.
