    My mum did. thats why me and my sister are 10 months apart

    But the chances i think are pretty slim, well in your case i hope so!

    If you ovulate before AF I guess it is possible, but try not to stress! Xx

    It's possible. Try not to worry (easier said than done , i know). You cant change it now unless you wanted to take the morning after pill, though i dont know if that would be recommended so soon after birth as it can make you feel sick. Talk to a dr if you're concerned.

    Btw - well done for ending the drought so soon

    Its unlikely, but not impossible. I know two two women who had babies within 10-11 months of having a baby - one of them even managed to have them in the same year - one in January and one in December!

    AF didnt return for me for ages, but i guess if you ovulate then maybe, are you BF or FF, isnt it harder to fall pg if your BF??

    on another note, go you for getting back into the swing of things @ 4 weeks....DD2 is 5 weeks and im definatly not game yet

    Trillian - I wonder if we know the same girl lol what are the chances there are two ladies that two babies in the same year in the same months lol.

    Try not to stress though Ferrals, the chances are so so slim.

    Thanks girls Ella is FF so i guess AF will return like normal it did with my other kids i just hope i didnt ovulate as i have been really wanting sex the last few days.
    Anyway i doubt i would get pregnant i am 37 now so less likely to fall after DTD once.

    DH has orders withdraw or get the snip.

    The withdraw method isn't very fool proof Hun, the guys ejaculate a little before their big ejaculation so even if he pulls out, little swimmers might already be swimming to their goal.

    I doubt it. I think I'd be more worried that if I was pregnant what about the c section scar etc
