You are a freak. Do you not care about your health? Are you just that sex hungry? Its routine that doctors tell the woman to WAIT at least SIX weeks after giving birth before engaging in sexual relations. It gives your body time to heal and adjust to mother hood. Now you are already working on another one?! The funniest thing about this is that you are asking US, People on yahoo! answers, rather that calling you doctor, like a smart sane, health savy person would. Are you on welfare?

You had sex 3 times since your post-partum bleeding ended? Is that what you mean?
Well, for starters...having sex after birth should be held off until the 6 week post partum check up. This is to give your body time to heal.
Secondly, if your breastfeeding, your period won't return for a while. With some it's absent for only a few months, others the period is absent for up to a year. It depends on how long and how often the baby is breastfed, or the pumping situation...and hormone levels.
Finally, even if your bottle feeding, you shouldn't expect a period so soon. The post-partum bleeding tends to last a while for most (2wks with my firstborn, 3 wks with my second) so I wouldn't expect a normal period to even begin until a month or so after the last day of post-partum bleeding. It all depends too on how quickly your body gets back into shape and how soon the hormones level out.
I would definitely mention that you have had relations since your baby was born at your next OB visit. They will ask the form of protection used...and if none, then they will want to give you a preg. test.
GoodLuck

Exclusively breastfeeding moms start their period late, almost only after you stop breastfeeding. You should have rested for 6 weeks atleast after your delivery and then had sex. Take a pregnancy test but just keep in mind there are pregnancy harmones still in your body and a positive test is not always correct.

If your daughter is only 5 weeks old you really shouldn't have a period yet. You are probably barely over your post partum beelding. I don't understand your once it broke part of your question. If you clarify you could get more help.

Yeah, what the other poster said...you shouldn't be having sex for at least 6 weeks. Your body just isn't ready to get preggers again already. It took months for my cycle to get regular after having the kids. I was breastfeeding so that helped. Anything to keep that beast away longer is OK with me. LOL!

Okay... hold on. What broke?
Are you breastfeeding? IF so, you might not have your period for a while.
Isn't it time for a check-up with your doctor? Ask about this. Call his office and ask. Don't sit and worry. That's not doing you any good.
If you are asking if you can get preggers again so soon, yes, you can.

Periods wont start so early if you are breast feeding.
having sex so early after delivery is not advisable. It affects your health after some time. Give your body some time to heal and get back to nomal.
Most probaby you are not pregnant.but try the kit to be sure.

Don't panic. Especially if you are breastfeeding- but sometimes if you are not- it can take a while for the menses to return to normal after giving birth.
Worrying is only going to cause you stress and DELAY your period.
Talk to your doctor. If she/he thinks there is reason, a blood test to check for pregnancy hormones in your body will be conclusive.

What broke? If you mean a condom, and you think you are pregnant again, get a test done...over the counters are very accurate. But I'm not sure how we can help with that....
