I am breastfeeding my 5 1/2 month old still and my husband and I want to try to get pregnant again for number 4. How do I know when I'm ovulating when I haven't had my period yet?

My daughter is the same age and I'm trying to find out too

You may not ovulate before your first postpartum period. If you do, you may not have a long enough luteal phase to support a pregnancy. Or you could be fertile right now. I would start charting my cervical mucus. Check for "egg-white" cervical mucus. It's produced around ovulation.
