A 5-day delay in periods can be normal, especially if you are breastfeeding your 10-month-old twins, as breastfeeding can suppress or delay menstruation due to hormonal changes. Stress, fatigue, and postpartum hormonal fluctuations are also common causes of irregular periods after childbirth. If your period continues to be delayed or you suspect pregnancy, it is advisable to take a home pregnancy test and consult your doctor for further evaluation.
