Question About Breastfeeding Method As Birth Control Posted: 08-17-05 19:34pm
Here's what I would like to know, I was
hoping someone here can enlighten me!
I have a 3 month old baby and am looking
for a safe method of birthcontrol. I
thought I was using the lactational
amenorrhea method of birth control, also
refered to as the "breastfeeding method of
birth control", however, I just found out
that this only works if your period has
not yet returned. Does anyone know why it
doesn't work if your menstration has
returned? It is healthy and normal for
your menstration to return w/in the 1st
month or two postpartum and I
breastfeeding exclusively and on demand!
