Hello,
I am almost 6wk pp and my husband and I had intercourse just a few days ago and we were not careful..I know! I have no idea when or if I ovulated yet. I know people can get pregnant right after birth but what are the chances?? Do you think I can test in 10 days and get an answer? Are all the pregnancy hormones out yet?? I do not want to be pregnant again so fast....I feel like my period is coming by getting mild cramps but I would get those to if I ovulated..I am stressing out so much!! Any advice??

Are you breastfeeding? That can delay your period. If not, most (not all) women usually get their period by 6 weeks. I would take a test around 2 weeks after you had sex if you don't get your period. Alot of women are VERY fertile right after delivery. Good luck.

My daughter will be 10 months old next week and I still have not got my period. I just finished breastfeeding when a few weeks ago. My doctor said it was normal that I still do not have my period, especially because I breastfeed for 9 months.

hey debbie80, so how did it turn out for you? as i had a baby 9 weeks ago and i stopped bleeding after 4 weeks and i still havent had a period. I am not breastfeeding, but worried i might be pregnant again, as we have been using protection but thats not 100%
what do you think my chances are? plus i think i am secretly wishing i am? is that madness or my post pregnancy hormones?

twin_desire, it's not madness, and may not even be hormones. I know that I love being a mommy so much that I wouldn't freak out if I was pregnant so don't worry...Also, your hormones take forever to balance out. I stopped bleeding pp about 4 weeks also but didn't have my cycle for another two months. It just depends on how long it takes your body to balance out. I wouldn't reach for a pregnancy test yet, because it could give up your hopes.
