How long will it take to get my postpartum period after I stoped nursing? I nused my daughter for 10.5 weeks, now she is 14 weeks and I still have not seen a period yet! Is this normal, even after stoping altogeather? ?

When I stopped nursing my last child, it took about 2 months to get my period back.

With my 1st who I also BF it came back at 6 wks PP.........so what's the hold up?

Every time is different. With my first, I exclusively breastfed, and still got my period after 8 weeks. With my second it took 4 months, the rest of my kids I did not get mt period until after I stopped breastfeeding, as long as a year, so you can't compare it to your other pregnancies. The body changes.
