Hello!

I breastfeed my 3 month old and have had two periods since (I did with last baby also).The first was normal but this one was just spotting. I had gastro two weeks prior to this so possible the mini pill wasn’t absorbed and am worried I could be pregnant. Has this happened to anyone else (period wise)? Our two are close together and the thought of three 2 and under scares me.

  • For your own peace of mind I would go to the chemist for a pregnancy test


  • I’ld be straight off to the Dr fir tests, or at least buying a test from the chemist. Better to get sure one way or the other


  • I wish there was an update edit feature… did u do a test?! Are you?!


  • ust noticed your post after looking for a similar answer and wondered if you were pregnant in the end?


  • Checking back in to find out if you found out if you were pregnant or not :D


  • Fingers crossed the outcome was what you wanted/needed….God Bless


  • I am curious as to whether you are pregnant or not


  • Just saw this – I hope you’ve had the result you wanted.


  • Periods can be quite irregular for a while after giving birth, but it’s always good to have a test done if you are worried.


  • hi there, any updates :)


  • i would take a test :)


  • there are some good comments here


  • maybe go and take a test


  • Anything is possible!
    Have you had a test as yet? Good luck either way :)


  • I’ve heard of people falling pregnant and finding out at their 6 week check up, so I’d say yes, it is possible.


  • Ha yes that is a a scarey thought. I feel ur stress


  • it generally takes a while for the body to get back to normal but in saying that there is alway a chance of pregnancy when having unprotected sex. Best bet would be to buy a pregnancy test. As much as I’d love to tell you you’re not pregnant I just cant do that haha. Good luck, and just remember if you are pregnant….. we are never given more than we can handle. I say this as i have four girls three under the age of five. Youngest with severe disability and day seizures. We all work our way through tough times. And if you do have another one all the more to love.


  • i dont think you are pregnant, it takes awhile to get back into a regular cycle! but do a test so you know for sure!


  • This happened to me and I fell pregnant within 12 months. I think it all boils on down to being an extra fertile female and in love!


  • It may be just your body getting back to normal, however the old ‘breastfeeding as a contraceptive’ is really just a myth, if you end up with three I’m sure you’ll be fine…when they hit 16 it may be stressful though!
