HELP! Ovulating?? When??

After stopping breastfeeding does anyone know how long until ovulation returns? Can it return before my period? Is it just as hard to get pregnant after I quit breastfeeding before my period returns as it is during breastfeeding? I am so confused and really want to get pregnant again. Any help would be great.

I just recently stopped breastfeeding and my son is 15months.I had sex with my hubby around the 1st of the month and I think I am pegnant.I have motion sickness, nausea, and I cry at commercials! I dont know if these are symptoms of stopping breastfeeding or pregnant.

I got my period 3 months post pardum and my DD is 9 mo and still breastfeeding...I also got preg while breastfeeding but ended up m/c!  So it is definitely possible to get preg while nursing-that's a myth that you cant!  Everyone's cycles are different.

Technically you could get pregnant before even having a period, since ovulation happens first. Also, i would imagine its pretty hard (although not impossible) to get pregnant whle breastfeeding since its supposed to supress ovulation. But everyone is different, so i am unsure as to how long after you stop breastfeeding that you would expect to ovulate...
