What are the chances of me getting pregnant while breastfeeding?
ByHello, I just had a baby a little over 8 weeks ago. I am breastfeeding, but I’m still having my period. My husband and I have not been very careful the last few times we had sex. What is the liklihood that I can get pregnant?

Good luck…nursing is not birth control. And after you have a baby you are the most fertile. I got pregnant with my second child when my baby was that new. My kids are exactly 11 months apart.

Very high. Unless you want kids that close together (2 babies), I would use BC

Are you EXCLUSIVELY breastfeeding, or are you supplementing? Are you nursing on demand? Does baby have long periods of sleep or are you nursing around the clock?
Since you are only 8 weeks PP, are you sure you’re having a period already, or are you still having lochia from the birth? If you are exclusively BF, it would be odd for you to be having a period this early on.
