breast feeding & pregnant?

[stitch8083]

i had a baby 0n the 17th july, i am exclusively breast feeding although baby goes through the night, between 8-10 hours. on 29th august i had unprotected sex with my husband, althought he pulled out, 7-9 days after i had a very light pink discharge/bleeding? but only when i wiped, i'm also very tired. but i've got a 7week old, 22month old & 5yr old to look after.  i stopped bleeding from having baby 4weeks ago & haven't had a period. also that night was the only time i've fancied sex in the last couple of months. Could i b pregnant or is it my cycle trying to sort it out?

It's hard to say, it could be either option. I would wait till it's been 3 wks after sex and take a test.

I was just reading that bf-ing is 98 percent effective at preventing but only if your not supplementing, not going longer than 6 hours w/out a feeding and havent had a period. BUT you never know when your going to ovulate since you ovulate before you get your period. So you should get on some bc asap or use condoms!

breastfeeding is not a reliable form of b/c. you can end up pregnant while bfing. (it happened to my aunt....) and us women tend to be even more fertile after giving birth. so it is entirely possible that you are pregnant again.
