um.. help!

My baby is 5 months old. I still havent had a period, but I remember the OB dr telling me some women dont see a period till after six months. But lately ive been kinda having heavy white discharge, leakage. I do sometimes itch. Could it be a yeast infection? Could I be pregnant? Should I worry? Help?

Sounds like it might be a yeast infection.. but if u are breastfeeding its normal not to have periods.. i went 14 months without one... it was heaven lol   mind u i conceived straight afterwards....we are most fertile just after birth!!  :0)

I would not worry too much, my period didn't come till my 7 month after having my daughter..I would suggest you check with you dr to make sure you dont have a yeast infection.

It took 4mths for mine to come back. I stopped breastfeeding at 4wks. Your dr can do a blood test and check for hormone imbalance if you're worried tho.
