My question is could I be pregnant?
So.. to give you the facts:
DD was born july last year, ebf until 3 months, 1 bottle formula from 3-6 months, then weaned in line with her age up to now where she is breastfed once in the morning and has one bottle of formula before bed, STTN 4/7 nights so sometimes has a night feed.
My periods came back 8/9 weeks PP. They were to all intents and purposes regular, in that I had a monthly bleed but not always at the same time. I did not keep track as was not interested in knowing exactly when, but just knew it would come once a month. For what it is worth, I was on the pill for 13 years before coming off in order to TTC and had one true period before getting pregnant, so don’t know what my cycle lengths are.
I tried cerazette but didn’t get on with it, so we have been using condoms for the few occasions we have had sex
In April DH and I had unprotected sex in a moment of foolishness.
Within 24 hours I took the MAP.
I took a pregnancy test two weeks later, which came back negative.
I had a smear test 2 weeks ago where I also took a pregnancy test because I had not had a period since before the MAP. It came back negative.
I know it sounds ridiculous, with two negative pregnancy tests and still breastfeeding once a day but every now and again It worries me. I had no first trimester symptoms at all with DD other than fatigue, and with a near toddler who is only half the week sleeping through the night, some days I am fatigued!
Has anyone else had their periods return and then disappear whilst weaning from breastfeeding? And by that I mean, reducing feeds due to weaning.
Sorry for the long post, just wanted to share enough information to see what anyone had to say about my life!
