Yes, some women don't even get their period. My daughter will be one tomorrow, I'm still breastfeeding and I just got my first period back last week.

Yes, very normal...I did not get mine until I quit nursing and then it was still a little irregular for a few months.

Very very normal. I've been nursing my daughter for a year, and I haven't gotten it once.

Thats normal. Thats how most people get pregnant because they think that their periods are irregular and its normal but they become pregnant. If you are strictly breastfeeding you might not have a cycle. If supplement with formula its possible to have irregular cycles.

I nursed my daughter till she was 2yrs old. I started getting a period when she was a little under a year but I would get a period then go a couple months then get another period. I didn't get regular again until I was 13 months PP. From what I have read if you are feeding baby at least every 4-6 hours you will not start ovulating. But if you go longer than that just a few times ovulation will start. This is not true for everyone. My sister always starts ovulating at like 4 or 5 months PP.
