Haven't started my period!!!

Well I've been breastfeeding for the past 10 months. Last month I started my period on the 19th. But this month I haven't. I've been experiencing cramping and alot of bloating. I've notice that I've gained a couple of pounds. Not any one else though. My cloths fit different. No difference in my breast because I've been breastfeeding. I've been using condems since my second son was born 10 months ago. Is there still a way that I could be pregnant. I been using them correctly I know I have. Please help me I really don't want to take a pregnanct test. I don't want to have another child right now or anytime soon. Help!!!!

Girl--I understand...I just try to keep up with everyone's story in my head and I was confused on that one.  Kudos to you for wanting more.  I had 2 c-sections and decided that was enough for me!!  Have a great day--MH

Sorry about the confusion I want to have chiidren, but like 3 years from now. My Children are only 2 and 10 months. I've had two c-sections. And I want to experince vaginal birth. So that means I have to wait 2 years at least anyway!!!

Hey--I'm confused.  :)  In your post yesterday, you said that you would love another set of "twins.." and today you don't want to take a test and don't want to be pregnant.  Just curious!

It is possible to get pregnant while breastfeeding, even though it is an old wives' tale that you can't.  And I'm not certain what the percentage of safety is for condoms...I'm sure some of the other ladies on here will know. (96%?????)
Regardless, it takes a while after the birth of a child, and while breastfeeding for your period to become regular again.  If you have questions regarding this, you could always call your nurse/doc and ask their opinion.  I always err on the side of caution and call the doc.  
Good luck..MH
