Q: 

Is it normal to have a period lasting 2 weeks?

Any advice would be so helpful as I'm a real stress head.
I had my baby girl 8 months ago and breastfed for 5 months with no periods throughout. She is now 8 months and I'm still currently on my first period,i think its already two weeks long,is this right? I thought long periods were a bad sign? anyway we're really keen to have another baby so does this mean my fertility is out of line at the moment?or normal? should we try for a baby once this period ends?also where do you get the thermometers from to check ovulation time?any advice or help would be so appreciated as I'd rather not have to go and sit at the doctors with swine flu on the increase.
Thanks so much.
