Pregnant while nursing?

Just wondering if anyone on here is pregnant while trying to continue breast feeding? My DS is 6 months and although we are not "trying" we aren't preventing either. What/are your symptoms? What prompted you to test?

    I am, but DS was 14 months when we started trying. I tested because I was charting and doing OPKs and knew I was 10 DPO.

    I was on the mini-pill until we were ready. If I wasn't, I would have bought a bunch of cheap tests off amazon or eBay and taken one every few weeks.

    DS just turned one last Tuesday and I'm sixteen weeks pregnant with our second... I started weaning about two weeks ago.

    I got pregnant while breastfeeding (twice). However, I get my period back very quickly even when EBF (9 weeks after having my first daughter, 5.5 weeks after having my second) so I'm able to track my cycles and get pregnant easily compared to moms who haven't gotten their cycle back yet. I was also charting both times. I got pregnant with DD2 when DD1 was 5 months old. I got pregnant the third time (ended in miscarriage) when DD2 was 15 months.
