i am breastfeeding my 7 month old son.i think i had my last period around the 7th of march or so,i didnt jot it down.it was my 2nd period since his birth.i saw light blood 2 weeks later for one day(i didnt have sex during this time so it wasnt implantaion)...anyway...my husband returned on the 4th of april and of course we were intimate.so i guess my question is could i b pregnant and showing symptoms already,dispite the fact my period was irregular since i had the spotting in mid month...i feel fatigue,lightheaded,and a dull ache in my lower abdomin....he is working for the entire week so i wont b able to get out to buy a test until he returns,and i guess im alittle nervouse,could i b preggo?

Breastfeeding doesn't always stop conception, as some people believe. There is always a possibility that you are pregnant, especially since your periods have been irregular. I recommend not stressing until you can actually test, then test. If it's negative though, I would recommend using some kind of contraceptive just to be safe next time. If you don't want another child right away, try to be careful. Good luck!

You can expect your periods to be irregular when you are still breastfeeding, so that would explain the spotting.
Yes, you could be pregnant but try not to be nervous. A baby is a beautiful thing and if you are pregnant your children will be close to each other.
I got pregnant when I was breastfeeding at 4 months. My two toddlers are like peas and carrots now.
