Hi,
Thanks for the query.
I have read through your queries with diligence and the following are my comments to your queries.
1. Post pregnancy menstrual hormones may take on an average 3-6 months to stabilize and intermenstrual spotting is common during those 3-6 months time. A few spotting that you've had in May (8th), XXXXXXX (14th) and probably in July too may be the result of hormonal disarray. But do not worry, it should settle down very soon.
2. I am not sure of the reason why you aren't breast feeding. Breast feeding has various advantages both to the new born and mother. So if all is well, then do start feeding.
3. The duration of menstrual cycle, the amount of flow and other menstrual parameters are influenced by body hormones. Pregnancy and perhaps other XXXXXXX factors may have reset body hormonal mechanism to reduce the cycle length. I am not concerned unless it is very irregular or if the bleeding is severe.
4. By irregular cycles I meant, when you are not able to guess the period dates at all.
Average women would be able to predict their period dates with plus/minus 4-5 days; we would call one as irregular period if the cycle length varies for more than 21 days to 36 days.
5. Proper spacing between pregnancies is advised both for optimal health of mother as well as child. A study conducted in the past revealed - women who conceive in less than 6 months had 40% increased chances of preterm babies and 60% chances of low birth weight. It also revealed that women who conceive after 5 years face 23 - 40% of preterm deliveries.
"Ideal spacing period between 2 pregnancies is 18 months to 2 years."
To simplify, I think you are doing well as far as your menstrual cycles are concerned. Minor spotting in between periods is normal now and is expected to settle down. Breast feed your child if there is no contraindication. And for optimal health plan your next pregnancy after 2 years.
Hope I have answered all your queries. Let me know if you have any further queries.
If all your queries are answered, please close this discussion.

Hi and thanks again,
Symptoms and signs of orgasm vary among individuals. A few of the common symptoms during orgasm by women are increased breathing, tightening of muscles, arching of the back, etc. Moaning can occur in few women. To put in simple terms we can describe orgasm as the climax of sexual stimulation when you feel the maximum pleasure.
The orgasm achieved with masturbation and sexual intercourse may be different. But if you are able to achieve orgasm on masturbation, you should be able to have one with sexual intercourse too. You need to discuss with your husband about your displeasures and interest. With proper discussion you and your husband should start enjoying sexual intercourse.
Urge to urinate is a common occurrence while and after sexual intercourse. This is normal.
And as far as G-spot is concerned, it is an area in the vaginal wall which produces the maximum sexual pleasure. In most women this spot is located in the anterior (front) surface of vaginal an inch or two from the outside. You can explore it during masturbation or sexual intercourse. When found, stimulating it can increase the chance of you having an orgasm.
In simple terms, what you describe are not serious problems and can be solved with a good conversation with your partner. Discuss about it now.
Hope this answers your query. Let me know if you need more information.
