Camila Farah
When you start reducing the amount of time you spend breastfeeding your periods should start to return to their usual routine.
Your period coming back should have little effect on your breast milk so you can continue to breastfeed if desired. Mothers who are breastfeeding exclusively usually don t get their periods for several months after their babies are born says frances jones a lactation specialist and coordinator of the milk bank at bc women s hospital in vancouver. Breast feeding keeps these hormone levels high so the longer you nurse the more likely you will experience a light period or no period at all. On the flip side as you wean your baby off of.
You may notice some spotting light bleeding at first. All women experience a time of postpartum bleeding following birth which is not considered a menstrual period.
