    Hmm, I would suggest a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease.
    A friend of mine conceived 6 weeks after birth... so it can happen!

    Think I will get a test to be sure...was just curious to hear others experiences.
    Am a bit scared DH says he doesn't want any more babies.

    I have a friend who is only 10 months younger than her brother. So yeah - it can happen.

    I woudl say do a test and put your mind at ease either way.

    My BF conceived her 2nd baby 4 weeks after birthing her first child. They're so close in age that it gets confusing for them as they're the same age for a whole month and they look like twins rather than regular siblings. My friend also didn't realise she was pregnant until she was 4 months as she was breast feeding and she has PCOS so she put her lack of AF down to those.

    All the best organicem
