New and I need some advice

I am 40 years old and I have a 10 month old baby boy (2 older girls, also). I am still nursing. Almost exclusively because he is refusing to eat solids. My period returned at the end of August, but I haven't had another one since. So, I'd be about 12 days late. Should I be concerned?

    What are you concerned about?

    If you think you might be pregnant, take a test. Then you'll know. If you're concerned that your cycles are off, well, you're EBF and that can throw things off for some people. I'd ask your dr.

    I would take a test if I were you, just to be sure.  I was told you are most fertile up to 18 months after giving birth last and EBF does not always work as birth control, especially if your period returned or had at least one normal cycle.  Good luck!

    EBF is not birth control. Eeeeeever. Even if you are not having AF at all. Just puttin' it out there. See 2u2 board for lots of examples.
