I took birth control between numbers two and three. I got pregnant the third cycle after stopping the birth control, 9 months pp.
<--- It happened to this girl
AF came back at 11 months pp after I had DD1. I knew something was off when there was no sign of her when DD2 turned 13 months. That and the fact she had suddenly weaned herself.
So yeah, it definitely can happen.
In women of typical fertility, it is ovulation that in essence causes a period. The hormones that release the egg taper off and if HCG isn't being produced to indicate pregnancy, then your body releases estrogen that starts your period. Therefore, even if PP women who haven't had a period, the egg is released prior to the first period.
PP's have good experience with this , but I don't. My AF stubbornly shows up at 6 weeks pp, regardless of me EBFing.
I got pregnant before my first period. In fact I still haven't had one since before DD was conceived so it's been like 2.5 years!
When I got pregnant with DS I was still EBF but she was STTN. She quit nursing a month later.
This was me too.
I did not get a period between my two kids - it can totally happen! I, too, haven't had a period in over 2 1/2 years!
I was still nursing DD and my milk supply decreased so that is why I took a test - pregnant without a period!
