You may not get regular periods for a very long time. But that doesn't mean that in order to get regular periods you should stop breastfeeding the baby.
It only means that you should get a Copper T fitted so that you don't become pregnant.
Otherwise you will become pregnant and keep thinking that the "irregular periods" are due to breastfeeding the baby.

Irregular period can be due to breast feeding but it's better to get urine pregnancy test done too..
