Getting straight to the point here. Baby is 8 weeks old, bf and got the implant in today. Not had a period yet. How long before I am safe to have sex, need to corner my husband big time IYKWIM!!!!! Doctor said two weeks and I near fainted in horror! But That does not sound right to me!

Just to clarify, You usually have to get it done within 5 days of period starting. But if your bf and not had a period how do they time it.

If you are exclusively breastfeeding on demand with no breaks of longer than 4 hours even through the night you should be fine anyway through the LAM method
