Getting pregnant while breastfeeding
Has this happened to anyone? I have not had a full AF - but did have some spotting a few days ago.

Getting pregnant while breastfeeding
This has not happened to me, but I believe it definitely could. I got my period back around 6 months after Dd was born. At first it wasnt regular and skipped a month here and there. Now she's 17 months old and I'm still BFing her several times a day and AF is very regular every month. I also feel ovulation pain and all the other symptoms of ovulation, so I definitely believe I'm fertile again even though I'm BFing.

Re: Getting pregnant while breastfeeding
Yup. My daughter got pregnant with her 2nd when her 1st was 9 months. EBF baby.
ETS: I've heard that while breastfeeding a lot of women don't get their period. She wasn't one of them. She continued getting her period every month while breastfeeding.

Re: Getting pregnant while breastfeeding
happened to me - currently 32 weeks pregnant
DD was 6 months old and i had spotting/bleeding for a few days, i assumed it was my first pp period. a week later i felt awful - took an HPT and found out i was pregnant. still not sure what the spotting was bc timing didnt make sense for implantation bleeding. but i did have a subchorionic hematoma that may have been the cause
my LOs will be 15 months apart

Re: Getting pregnant while breastfeeding
I got preg when dd was 15 months old. I was still BF. Funny, I had spotting too and then some major bleeding. That's how I found out I was pregnant. Felt awful and bloated and nauseous, then started gushing blood. Made an emergency visit to the doctor and blammo. Pregnant. That dd is now 9 months old.
