    I forgot to add I didn't get AF between my two, baby 1 born, exclusively BF, no AF, BFP 13 weeks later.
    Oh, yeah, this is pretty common, too! I have at least 2 friends who have gone on to have 2 more kids without having AF since before the first one was born!

    I'm with Lulu and part of the small percentage of women who fall pregnant within a few months (4) of giving birth despite full time BFing with lots of night feeds and no AF. I've heard it happen quite a lot actually.

    Just wondering for those of you who where breastfeeding only but got pregnant, did you express at all?

    Yep, I was also expressing when I fell pregnant... not huge amounts... just enough for DH to give in a bottle when i went out for a few hours... a few times a week.
