Breast feeding?: Are you breast feeding? If so, your periods can be irregular. If you do not plan to be pregnant make sure you are using some form of birth control.

Anovulation: It sounds as if you're having anovulatory cycles. These are cycles where the ovary fails to release an egg, which disrupts hormonal levels.
