Late period, breastfeeding

Totally normal, don't panic yet! Breastfeeding suppresses the hormones that regulate ovulation, so even after your first period comes back, the cycle can stay irregular for quite a while, some mums experience this on and off for up to a year postpartum. That said, if you are genuinely worried about pregnancy, just take a test to put your mind at ease, because the honest truth is that breastfeeding is not a reliable form of contraception once your period has already returned. My friend went through the same thing, her cycle was all over the place until she fully weaned, so she just kept tests at home and checked whenever she felt anxious, which really helped her stress less about it.
