Well, surgery, yeah, but also giving birth will stop your periods, particularly if you are breastfeeding the baby. It's called "lactational amenorrhea", and is nature's way of trying not to let Mom get pregnant while baby is still relying on her for everything.
It's not 100% effective as a contraceptive, so use a backup.

It should be normal considering the menstrual cycle does chnage after the birth of a child...i had a csection myself but havent experienced this...try birth control and it should help regulate it ive been taking birth control for 5 or 6 years now and it helps tremendously even my periods are shortened length lasting only 4 days:)
