Hi,
I understand your query.
During lactation , periods can be absent/irregular due to hormonal changes
while breast feeding.The delay you had might be due to that.
Only need at the moment is to use some barrier method (condom)/,IUD,/
mini pill for contraception after a gynecologist's advise.
Thanks.
