Most likley: The key determinant in resumption of menses after delivery is whether you breast feed the baby, which usually delays the onset of menses. Pl dont forget that since you can ovulate before your periods, you should use contraception if plan to have sex after delivery, even though your menses havent started yet. For mothers who breast feed exclusively, meneses can be delayed for months.
