Hello everyone I've weaned my age 3 toddler 3 weeks ago now am having no period from the 13th of Dec. Am so bloated,fatigue is killing me, vomiting and am not pregnant. I can barely take the smell of some cologne and my body wash omg its killing me I really don't know what to do. Anyone else experience this. Suwaine
Hi britni84,
it's VERY common for your period to be irregular after you stop nursing. It can take up to 6 months or so to get back on a regular cycle. Good luck!
oops thats day #49 not 49 days late. 21 days passed missed period!
thanks ladies! I've completely weaned her as of 2 weeks ago and still nothing!! I've taken 2 tests and all BFN! I'm so bummed that my cycle is gonna be messed up! we wanted to start trying for #2! guess i'll just have to wait and see.... i'm 49 days late as of today! :( I only got that one period (Oct 2nd) since pregnant with my daughter. i assumed it would come back after i stopped nursing her....
It didn't happen to me, but I know someone who when they started to feed less they slowly got there period back, and for them it's still not regular (There feeding once or twice a day still). It might not be regular for you until after you completely stop.
wow we could have written the same post. I was going through this all last week. My first period after breastfeeding for one year was last month. I was due to have last wed but was having alot of pregnancy symptoms and was actually hoping to have a BFP when I tested. I gave in and took a test this morning and BFN. :( around 4 oclock AF came. She was 5 days late. Before I got pregnant I was very regular with my periods.. I am talking every 28 days I would get my period! I assumed it would go right back to the way it was. But maybe ours bodies just need time to adjust. Good LUck
