i should add i have a just 2 yr old as well! i have very sim feelings to early last pregnancy which i remember very well i.e. weeing all the time butterflys in tummy and some period like pain - i did couple of neg tests last week but need to do another i think to be sure as i knew i was pregnant last time a week b4 period due. really don't know how possible it is as i am bf'ing and the longest gap btwn feeds has only been 10 hrs? has any got preg again this early and still bf'ing have to say i really hope it is false alarm... can't wait to find out tomoro love being pg love my babies but could do with some recovery time

Breastfeeding isn't a 100% method of contraception (not that there is one mind you) - I was feeding ds 5-6 times at night for months and months and my periods still came back when he was 6mo.

The only thing to do is a test! hope it's the result you want

oops ! Sorry think you should retest. If negative rethink your contraception, 10 hour gap is ages in the scheme of things and even exclusive bfeeding a very unreliable form.

i did the test still neg but i am def going to rethink contraception can't get in that panic again!

I found myself in you situation but i didnt get the neg i had the positive! I have a 8 month old and 6+2 months pregnant! I had the pill all ready to go and found i was PG! To me its not the end of the world, but i understand your worrie. Go to you GP and ask them to do a test and talk about contraception.

id gone to get the pill and my doc did a test as i hadnt had a period,i had to go back the next day to take ds1 for his 3 month immunisations.and the nurse said,oh ur pg test was positive.i only bf ds1 for 5 weeks though,but i was using contraception and wasnt aware of any 'accidents'.
