Bub is 10 months and i still hav't got my period. I am not pregnant i took a test last week, I did breastfeed for 8.5 months.

Should i be worried?
Does it usually take this long?

Any advice welcome!

to be honest i can understand why u would be concerned, i would talk to a dr/gyno to get the most accurate advice ya can do but i have heard that it can take some time to sort its self out. My gyno used to say dont worry if u really want it i can bring it on. Unsure if this is possible for you tho.

If you were still bfing this would be quite normal. As I understand you haven't been bfing for about 1 1/2 months? I would say that AF won't be too far away in that case - maybe give it another month or so to see what happens. I don't think it necessary magically starts immediately after you stop bfing - you will still be producing milk for a while so I think it would be quite normal for it to take a couple of months or so to return.
