Brief Answer:
Delay to missed periods can happen while you are breastfeeding
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.
I have read your question carefully and understand your concern.
A mother may have irregular periods while breastfeeding and may skip some months.
A missed period while breastfeeding is normal.
This is due to high levels of Prolactin hormone.
High levels of Prolactin can stop your periods.
Hence be calm and don't think for bad health issue as cancer.
Hope I have answered your question and please feel free for further discussion.
