Post partum periods: Periods after delivery can be "spotty" or "irregular" especially if breast feeding. however, you don't say when you delivered and how long the periods have been absent or sketchy. If the 11/23 sex event was unprotected then a pregnancy test is needed at the end of this cycle as well.
