were you breastfeeding?
if not contact your gp asap as you may well already be pregnant again

Your hormones take quite a while to settle down after pregnancy, and if you've just weaned your baby off the breast a month ago, it might take a few more weeks for everything to settle. Give it a little more time, and it might be worth seeing your GP too for a quick check up.

I would wait another month or so - it should start back soon. Is there any chance you could be pregnant? With my first child, I like you started right back but with the second, it took a little longer AND was like a flood. As each pregnancy is different, so is the post partum period.

That does seem rather long...
See your gynecologist, it's time for your annual PAP anyway. Express your concerns. He will likely do a pregnancy test. It is common to get pregnant again without realizing it before your period starts back.

when my girlfriend had our first baby after brestfeeding hers started again after 3 weeks but with our second took six weeks without brestfeeding the midwife said no birth is the same and you start your periods again when your body is ready, I'm sure your body just needs time to gear itself back up but if your worried hun just pop into your GP even if its just to put your mind at rest.
