I have not had a cycle yet and my second baby is 10 months old and still BF. I started having cramping and lower back pain today. When I strained to have a BM It almost felt like round ligament pain. I am not on any bc and we aren't preventing but not actively trying. Wondering if this is a cycle getting ready to start or possible pregnancy. Anyone get pregnant while breastfeeding?
Re: anyone get pregnant while breastfeeding? 10 mo
Lots of women get PG while BFing, with or without a cycle returning as you can ovulate before your period comes back.
I got pregnant last month while BFing my 16 month old (we were only on our 2nd month trying) although it ended in a chemical pregnancy. If you don't want to get PG now make sure you get on some BC.
Good luck!
ETA, if you are worried you are pregnant take a test. And you can always temp to see if you are ovulating. Check out the TTGP board for more info.
