    Breastfeeding, Birth Control, Missed Periods
    I had a baby on August 25. I had a period in October, so I started my period that Sunday. Then a week later had another one. I didn't have sex until the second week of my second pack of birth control. Im breastfeeding full time. I have missed two periods. I haven't had any symptoms. Could I be pregnant?

    It's possible.

    Have you tried taking a pregnancy test?

    Expert will chime in here, annie, but probably your system is confused because you are breastfeeding full time, concentrating on the baby.

    Breastfeeding itself, especially full time, usually alters your cycles. It is natures way of trying to space out pregnancies.

    It could happen that you are pregnant, but between full time breastfeeding, and using the pill, it would be unlikely. Certainly try a pregnancy test so that you can find out one way or the other.
