You can still ovulate while breast feeding

Some women mistakenly think that just because they are breastfeeding and menstruation has not yet resumed, that they cannot get pregnant.

Ovulation can be reduced if breastfeeding is the exclusive method of feeding and is not supplemented by alternative sources and if feedings are short and occur more frequently.
