I know its the DM, but really?
"It has also meant that Jessy will remain an only child with the couple, who had planned to begin further IVF when their son was six months old, told conception won't happen while Ms Krevantin is still breastfeeding"

A spokesperson from bpas told MailOnline: 'Women are coming to our clinics having become pregnant by mistake.

'Exclusive breastfeeding can provide highly effective contraceptive cover, but only if strict criteria are met.'
