How long until periods return/ovulation starts?

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had any experience with coming off the mini pill and how long it takes for periods to start again?
My daughter does still breastfeed at night but I was under the impression that ovulation was only affected by feeds that were less than 4 hours apart?
Just starting to feel a little concerned as I've come off the pill in anticipation of ttc our second but am still waiting over a month later for my period to reappear.
Not sure if I can ovulate/get pregnant without my period showing up?
Just a bit confused and wondered if anyone had any advice they could share.
Thanks!

I came off the mini pill last year & it took me 6 weeks to get my first period. You can get pregnant before the first period

Okay thanks, its not been 6 weeks yet, so maybe I just need to be a bit more patient!

@jolota i completely get it. I was googling all the time how long it took for people to get periods after the pill! Then one morning bang on 6 weeks woke up with cramps & then it started

@Figtree11
Thank you, that's reassuring that I wasn't missing something obvious!
