Of course!: It is common for women to regain their periods while breast-feeding. It usually happens after the baby has been on a regular feeding schedule for a while or when other foods are introduced into the baby's diet. Usually women make a little less breastmilk when they are menstruating, but most often production is matched with the baby's needs.
