The Return Of Your Period After Giving Birth. Of women who choose not to breastfeed, approximately 80% find their period has returned within 10 weeks. Breastfeeding can delay menstruation and ovulation for 20 weeks or more, but it is not uncommon to find your period returning sooner, or much later, than 20 weeks. There are differences among individual women and their hormone levels, so itâs difficult to say when a period will recommence after childbirth.
If this is not your first pregnancy, keep in mind that every pregnancy is different. Even if your period returned exactly six weeks after the birth of your first child, this does not mean your menstrual cycle will return at the same point with your second pregnancy.ou are more likely to have no periods while breastfeeding if you're exclusively nursing and your baby does not use a pacifier. In most cases, the rule of thumb is that it's perfectly normal to wait up until six months after you're finished breastfeeding for your menstrual cycle to return.
