As far as I know you are not more fertile. Its supposed to be your body's way of saying you aren't ready for another baby but it's definitely not birth control.

Supposedly you do not ovulate while you are bf. However, if too much time lapses in between bf and egg can slide by hence why people do get pg while bf.

I know a couple of people who became pregnant while breast feeding, so if you're BFing and you're not ready for #2, then I would use some form of birth control.

My SIL got pregnant with her DD when her DS was 4 months old. She thought BFing would protect her. Guess not! Chat Icon

You can get pregnant while BF but it is rare. There is a special form of BCP for BF moms. It is the "mini-pill" and doesn't contain estrogen.
