I've been pumping for 6 days and not taking BCP but have not got my period yet. When should i expect to get it? When did other women get it? Thanks, Marica.

When I went off and started pumping, I got my period almost right away (3-4 days). I have not had it again since and my daughter is almost 9 months old. Jennifer

Lactation suppresses ovulation and thus your period. Mama to 4 sons & 1 daughter: Carlos/Rafael/Loran b/d. 3-9-05; & earth angels Xavier b. 12-3-06 & Ivy b. 7-29-08 Preg. Loss & Child Death Support.
