Also No AF

by Sunshine912, Dec 01, 2006 12:00AM
I have a 3 month old daughter and I am taking the Mini pill. I am no longer breastfeeding. I stopped about a month ago.
My question is that I haven't had AF. I have always had an IUD. I am taking the pills on time every night. Never missed one. I guess I don't know much about the pills. Does it stop you from having a period. I know I am not pregnant. I took a test. I take them religiously. Do you not have a period right off after having a baby or does it take a certain amount of months? It is frustrating me. Before I had my daughter, I could set my clock to when I started.

I stopped nursing my son at 13 weeks old I did not get my first period until he was six months old--I was not on any form of birth control either.  Someitmes it may just atke your body a while to get back into the swing of things.  Though remember it is stillpossible to become pg before you have a period.  You will ovulate first.  So still keep taking your pill if you don't want a new little one soon.

Thank you. I was worried that something was wrong with me. I don't like not know what is the matter with me. I am still unsure with the pills because I was always on the Iud. Would you suggest getting the stronger pill now even though I take the mini pill consistently?

I had my period back about 2 weeks before weaning my daughter (I stopped at 15mo old) but I took the mini pill all along and I think it can stop the period (not 100% sure)
