I've been on the mini pill (Ortho Micronor)since my daughter was born last August. We are still breastfeeding, though less often since she has started solids. Up to about two weeks ago, I hadn't gotten a period, which was a nice break from dealing with it every month. Then, all of a sudden, it showed up on the last week of April. The period was "normal" for me--it lasted a week, then was gone.
I know that when you are on the mini pill, it is possible to have your period. The problem is that mine started up again yesterday, so basically, I had about a week off between my period ending and starting up again. Is this something that can happen when you are on the mini pill? Could it have anything to do with not breastfeeding as much? Should I be worried? My periods were regular before having the baby and starting on the mini pill.
Any advice would be appreciated!
