luteinizing hormone] in the pituitary gland; these two hormones
are responsible for development of the follicle and hence
ovulation.
Before her period comes back, the mother may feel
menstrual pain. It may be noted that the more frequently she
breastfeeds the longer it will take for her monthly period to
return.
Mothers who bottle-‐feed their babies
will find that the monthly
periods will cease for between one and three months after giving
birth, then menstruation will resume. (It is possible to become
pregnant before getting your period after having given birth.)
Marital relations after giving birth
You have to refrain completely from marital relations for no less
than
forty days and possibly longer, so that the womb will not
become infected.
Is it possible to take birth control pills whilst
breastfeeding?
It is preferable to use another means of contraception because
birth control pills reduce the production
of milk and during this
period milk is the only source of nutrition for the baby.
Breastfeeding and your figure
There is a prevalent belief among many mothers, especially new
mothers, that breastfeeding has
a negative effect on their
appearance and figure, and that it will make the woman gain
weight and cause her breasts to become flabby.
But in fact the opposite is true, because
breastfeeding causes
contractions in the uterus and stops bleeding, and helps the
uterus to go back to its normal size, which
in turn helps the size of
the belly to reduce and go back to its normal size. By the same
token, breastfeeding helps to get rid of fat that has accumulated
in the woman’s body during pregnancy,
which will lead to the
woman regaining her figure.
