I'd love to get off of it, but we're not at place to want to TTC again. I'm really afraid how messed up my period is going to be when it's finally free of hormones. It's worse because DH really wants to try for a girl which will require some figuring, but with an already erratic cycle on the mini pill, I don't know what's going to happen. I'd love to be hormone free, but doesn't look like that's going to happen soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-have-wonky-periods-a-year-post-delivery#post-832749 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 11:56:46 +0000 chrispygal 832749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 11 months old today so I am almost a year out from giving birth and am surprised how not-regular my periods are. I was unable to BF so my period came back fairly quickly and at 6 weeks out I started back on the birth control pill. I stayed on this for a few months and then decided to go off because I was struggling with some post-pardum depression. Going off helped me feel much better. Since then I have been tracking my period so I know when to expect its arrival. Last month I was 5 days late and this month I am 7 days late. I have not had a period in over 38 days. I was a 28-30 day cycler always. We are very careful in prevention so I do not believe I'm pregnant, but this just seems weird to me. Has anyone else experienced a change in their cycle timing after having a baby? I'm starting to wonder if these changes mean I'm not ovulating? I'm also just a few months away from 40 and am not sure if that's part of the change in cycle also. Any thoughts or experiences?? </p>
