How long does it take to get regular monthly periods after having a child?

Question

I had my daughter in December of 2012, started birth control 4-6 weeks after. Breast fed till she was between 12-13 months. She is 18 months old now... I had three periods total, one when she was 10 months again when she was15 months and then two weeks after that. I am now on day 68 of my cycle.

Answer

You need to talk with your doctor.

Answer

I breastfed for 10 months, my periods were I a typical schedule 4 months post baby, but came with intense cramping. It was honestly 18 months before they came with the old familiar symptoms.

Answer

Are you breast feeding any ? I'm 11 months postpartum and I'm not on BC but I am breast feeding and I have irregular periods ranging from every 5-6 weeks .

Answer

I finally got another one after 72 days but it is so heavy and painful. Cramps go all around and down my legs, and flow is so heavy it's like I just gave birth. I preferred not having a period to this.

Answer

Is it possible that my pcos got worse, or ovarian cysts I had at 15 came back after having her and causing all my issues?

Answer

I stopped taking it 2 weeks ago after seeing a different doctor , cause I was nauseous and having pregnancy symptoms, they checked me and did blood work and confirmed that I wasn't, and told me to stop taking it. The nausea stopped soon after but still no period. Next appt is in July.

Answer

So are you not taking birth control anymore then cuz you shoul have regular cycles depending on which birth control your using.
