Were your periods irregular 15 months after birth?

I had my first period 6 weeks ago following birth 15 months ago. Assumed all back to normal but only realised tonight that 6 weeks have passed. I am only breastfeeding twice a day

Please come and tell me it is unlikely I'm pregnant

Are you using contraception? Unlikely but you need yo test. And use contraception if you don't want to be pg again!

I had my first period just like you at 15 months. We are now at almost 17 and u have yet to have another- have poas twice - not pregnant. Grr. Still bf though perhaps more times a day.

Is it possible I am menopausal? (Age 31- perhaps a bit paranoid, but WTF?)

Much more likely to be bf! I was down to once a day at 13 months and periods still didn't return until 15 months.

And they were quite erratic st first having always been very regular. Six or seven weeks between wasn't unusual when they came back first if all.
