"Just after childbirth a woman's body releases a hormone that signals her breasts to produce milk for the baby. This hormone also blocks other hormones that would lead to release of an egg from the ovary. If a woman breastfeeds her baby, the baby's active suckling keeps the level of this hormone high, and so she does not release eggs."

Yes, the hormones released during breast feeding naturally suppress ovulation. Pre contraception this was the only way of spacing chidren. Don't rely on it as a form of contraception though.

No prenatal vitamins do not cause you to miss your period - they are vitamins, thus have no influence on your menstrual cycle.
