A. yes dear Breastfeeding delays the resumption of periods the time of resumption of periods can vary greatly a breastfeeding mother get back her periods anytime from 4 to 6 weeks to even after one year. on an average if mother has exclusively breastfeed her baby till 6 month complete then gets back her period after 6 to 8 months.
