Oh yes, absolutely

for bf to be effective as contraception, it needs to be round the clock, including at night, and your child needs to be exclusively breastfed, no other foods / bottles etc

F&Z: Even when I bf every two hours round the clock I was still fertile.

boobylicious: I think you need to be careful about contraception, or not be too upset if you get pregnant!
