Normal varies: Almost every thing has been reported by breast feeding mothers when it comes to their menstrual periods. Whilit can take months for the cycle to return to normalcy or remain irregular in between, women need to remain cautious to avoid becoming pregnant as they may be extremely fertile before their period normalizes.
