Getting your period while breastfeeding is a natural part of the postpartum journey, though the experience can vary widely from one mother to another. Breastfeeding often delays the return of menstruation due to the hormone prolactin, which suppresses ovulation. Some mothers may not have their period for several months or until they reduce or stop breastfeeding, while others may see its return within weeks, especially if their baby sleeps through the night or supplementing reduces nursing frequency.

Postpartum periods can initially be irregular, with changes in flow, duration, and symptoms compared to pre-pregnancy cycles. Hormonal fluctuations may also temporarily affect milk supply or alter the taste of breast milk, making some babies fussier during this time. It’s important to remember that ovulation can occur before your first period, meaning pregnancy is possible even without menstruation
