i am currently breastfeeding my 7 month old DD. I have not had any periods since b4 i was pregnant with her... but i have had sex and have heard that you can still ovulate so therefore get pregnant . I was wondering if anyone can tell me when / how long after sex i should do the test because it says that you can do it up to 4 days b4 u are due ur period but im not having any so im very confused as to what to do?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

I would suggest that you buy a twin pack of tests and test now, if its negative you should then try another in a few weeks.

Good luck x

i had a positve 10 days post ovulation and know several other people have too....

sperm can survive for a few days before the fertilise an egg though so maybe wait a couple of weeks?
agree get a twin pack and if -ve try again a week or so later

I'd leave it at least 2 weeks since the unprotected sex before testing and test with first wee of the day

you can ovualte when breastfeeding especially once the baby is having any solids , or a dummy/bottle anything other than the breast and also is sleeping through the night

of course there is a chance you are pregnant, only a test will tell you though
