It is very possible to get pregnant while breastfeeding. It is not considered a reliable form of birth control I would take a test ASAP.

You very well could be pregnant. You should see your obgyn for testing. I'm not sure a home test would be that accurate this soon after a baby. The pregnancy hormones might still be high enough from your first pregnancy to give you a false positive on a test today. Start using protection until you are ready to have a sibling for your little one.

Well they say to abstain from sex for atleast a couple months after you gave birth, so chances are if you are having unprotected sex you may be pregnant. The best thing to do is go take a preg-test...it is the only way you would know for sure.

Most women will start ovulating again six to 18 weeks after delivery, if they are not breastfeeding. But, some women do ovulate while breastfeeding, too. It's best to always use some form of birth control if you don't want to get pregnant.

I would take a test now. Just to be sure. I got pregnant with my son when my other son was 4.5 months old and now they are 13 months apart so it is possible I would take a test.

There is a very high chance you are pregnant. Women are the most fertile during the year immediately after giving birth. I don't know why, I just know that we are.

Oh yes, you most certainly can be pregnant. My oldest two children are the same age for six weeks ... and I breastfed! :) Get a test, it's the only way to know for sure.
