Conceiving after 1st baby

[Rosieroo]

Hi

Had my first baby approx 5 weeks ago and am breastfeeding full time.

Haven't done the deed since I gave birth yet, but wont be using contraception when I do as what happens will happen. Am hoping that we will concieve when Ella is around 5-6 months old.

Has anyone conceived whilst breastfeeding? We want a pretty short gap between our children although I know it will be hard work!

I didnt conceive while breastfeeding but was off the pill for 9 months then conceived despite having blocked tubes. Was told I would have great difficultly conceiving naturally and now Im onto baby 2 so anything is possible.

Do you have any cycle? You could always try ovulation predictor kits.

Good luck.
