I've never been irregular and I am wondering if the increased BF has stopped this process. And no, we are not pregnant. : ) Any input? Copy Link to Clipboard

Totally normal and it probably means you are bf enough to stop menstration now. When bf my bio son, I got my period back at 7.5 months, but I was not bf as much as I do with our adopted daughter (I had more milk and he bf more efficiently and less often). Jennifer
