How to get my cycle back while breastfeeding?

I'm currently nursing my 13 month old. I still don't have a period. My husband and I want to start ttc next month but I haven't had a period or any signs of ovulation! I don't want to have to wean but I'm not sure what else to do. My daughter is still nursing at night 2-3x per night and several times during the day. My son is 4 and I don't want a huge gap between the kids. So if anyone has experience with this please help.

    This is nature's way of controlling family size. You probably won't have a cycle till/unless you wean the baby.

    As you know, it's a hormonal thing.

    Why the rush? Your baby will wean in a couple of months.

    You are right, you may need to stop breast feeding
