No Period while Breastfeeding
Dear Helen

I have read that my periods will return once breastfeeding is over.

I have cut back on the breast feeds over some weeks and approx. 3 weeks ago my baby had his last breast feed (he simply refuses my breast) - my question is: How long after a total breastfeeding stop will my periods usually return?

... and no, I am not pregnant, I have just taken a pregnancy test with a negative result.
