OK...I had a baby just about 6 weeks ago now... I had the useual bleeding for 3 weeks or so..I am not breast feeding,I pump 3 oz a day (I doubt that's enough to effect having a period)anyways so I haven't had a cycle yet, which I know is normal for lots of woman, and I know you ovulate something like 14 days from the first day of your period.... so since I have not yet had a period then it's highly unlikely that I could ovulate right??? ↓

u can still ovulate without having a period. its a very common misconception about breastfeeding. alot of women get pregnant again b.c they dont understand you do ovulate whether or not ur period is there at first. ↑

and even though its only 3oz a day its still enough b.c ur still sending that message to ur body that someone is getting that much a day ↑

I am still waiting for mine. But yeah your body will react the same way whether you are pumping or breastfeeding. ↑

so even if I wasn't releasing breast milk at all I could still ovulate before a period?? wow... ok, now I feel like an idiot! ↑
