breasfeeding, periods, CB fertility monitor & clomid....

[whenwillibefamous]

Hi,

I am breastfeeding, have had one period in Jan expected another last week but nada, thinking this could be because i upped the anty to 90% breastfeeding from combo FF feeding... baby is 4 months old.

Wonder if anyone can help as I have a few questions; can you still get pregnant whilst breastfeeding? if so how can you still ovulate without a period if so can you use the CB fertility monitor?
hmmmm

Also can you take clomid whilst breastfeeding? without a period I assume it would be impossible or is it?

Thanks!

Don't know what a CB monitor is but I got pregnant (twice) while breastfeeding. Clomid is not good when breastfeeding - it will pass to your baby and also will make you feel shitty! If you have had a period you are probably ovulating anyway. Periods are touch and go for about six months normally when they come back - just test every six weeks or so and you'll be fine

Good luck!
