I am EBF at least every 3-4 hours, sometimes 4.5/5hrs in the night. I have read that this can be an effective contraceptive, and so we have started off having unprotected sex, but I thought I'd ask for a second opinion. Conceived instantly before so am obviously quite fertile.
Does EBF work as a contraceptive? Has anyone else done this? If not, then what contraception did you use instead? Am loath to start taking pill as have never got on with it.
Thanks!
