More than likely she is not going to be in heat until fall anyhow. Normal breeding season for most goats is August-Feb.
Even if she did come into heat...dont breed her right away! She needs time to nurse her kids (unless you are bottle feeding) and her body needs time to rest. Being pregnant and giving birth isn't a walk in the park. I know your a guy and have no clue, but I don't think you would want to be producing babies back to back.

If you want a baby factory, one month is an ok wait. She will have more kids in about 6 months afterwards then. If you want a healthy goat that lives long, I would wait a couple months. Just breeding a pygmy female every year shortens it life to about 5-7 yrs. I am assuming it will be even shorter if you breed her 2 times a year.

A goat is very tough, but why not wait till the milk runs out?
You can go for that long can't you?

Goats are seasonal breeders - I very much doubt she will be in heat before next fall.....
