Hi,
If no periods in May , then do a pregnancy test, . If it is negative then wait for a week , give hormone withdrawal for periods. It is Lactational Amenorrhoea.

Hi... This happens with some people after delivery. You don't need to worry much.. slowly your menses will get regular. Wait for sometime. Or if you want contraception along with it. You can contact directly for any clarification.
