I've had period pains for a couple of days and today I got what i think is my period. I'm exclusively breast feeding on demand and my LO is seven weeks old.

I have been a little worried recently that my milk is slowing down and he will only feed for 10 mins before my breast goes really "flabby" (for want of a better word). I also don't get that very full feeling in my boobs that i used to...although he is feeding very regularly and does feed several times throughout the night too.

I suppose my question is.....can your milk stop, could that be a reason for me getting my period, I didn't think you were supposed to get them if you breastfeed?

Thomas seems to be putting on weight (i've not had him checked for a while) but he is throwing up after every feed and does seem distressed and is awake most of the day (and night)...HELP :oooo:
