I have a friend who went five years.
How old is the mom? I think the older the mom the more sensitive the
mom may be to the hormonal changes during lactation. I think the
average is 14 months,so that means that some moms return to ovulation
earlier and others later. I know another mom who had three children and
never had a cycle, but obviously ovulated because she has two more kids.
The kids are ages 7, 6 and 4. So please remind the mom to check mucus
and other signs for ovulation. But at this point, I would not be
concerned nor would I wean.
