Has anyone had this happen ? I suffer with HORRENDOUS hyperemesis every single pregnancy. I mean severe 6 different anti-emetics weekly IV the lot. I have had "Therapeutic terminations" of much wanted pregnancies because of the severity. I am ebf baby number 3 have had no periods yet. He is 5 months old so still feeding quite a bit and not weaned onto any solids. Had sex on hogmanay and now 2 weeks later I am throwing up. I was hoping its a bug but its giving me serious ptsd or something similar as its been 3 days now. I Just need reassurance that it is probably not pregnancy because as much as I want number 4 , I want to wait until youngest is a little more self sufficient for leaving him when I need treatment.

It’s entirely possible to get pregnant EBF
you’ll need to test

Happened to me! But baby was a bit older and eating food. It’s my fault really. I wasn’t have periods but must have got pregnant on first ovulation

Yes i have ordered tests from amazon (cant leave the house as so sick) I was just wondering about others experiences . Sorry I should have stated that so as people dont think I am an idiot.

Definitely possible, I fell pregnant with my son while EBF my daughter.

Of course it’s possible. I know two, normally sensible women, who had unprotected sex while BF and got pregnant when their babies were less than three months old. Get a test. And use birth control!

I know I know its my fault. He didn't "finish"during that act either it was elsewhere 🙃 so chances i imagine are super slim. But christ if I am it is incredibly unlucky and one in a million.

Definitely possible. I have 2 children 11 months apart and EBF...

TwoBlueFish · 17/01/2026 13:31

I’m here as a result of my mum being told that you couldn’t get pregnant while EBF…

Yes especially since it took almost a year of trying to conceive the baby before - with purple ovulation sticks and everything!

said baby is in my arms and a joy! So whilst unplanned she’s amazing
