How soon after giving birth is it possible for somebody to get pregnant again?

So is it possible to get pregnant before my period has returned?

I am planning on getting a test today.

Do a test lovely...only way to know for sure. FX it's what you are hoping for.

Yes, I think most people know someone who has become pregnant immediately after?! Take a test two weeks after shenanigans to find out :)

You are likely to ovulate and therefore be fertile 2 weeks before your first period, and it can be very unpredictable as to when your first period after birth will be. So yes it is definitely possible.

Very soon. I had a friend at school whose brother was only ten months older.

Hope you get the result you want.

Known as Irish twins. There were girls 10 months apart in the year below me at school. And bear in mind if your second comes early they could be less than 10 months apart... Good luck.

Yep, knew a girl from antenatal class who had 8.5 mths between her two.

Whereisegg · 28/07/2014 12:02

Yes it's possible as pp have said.
I hope you get the answer you want Thanks

OMG! 8.5 months is crazy! I'm 12.5 months older than my middle sister, so mum must've been pregnant around 3 months later, though think I was a bit prem.

My brothers are 10 months apart! First one born 21st January, 2nd one born 26th November!!!!

Hi Bear probably best to start your own thread that way all the responses will be about your query Smile

Also sorry but I don't have an answer for you.

seasavage · 28/07/2014 17:41

Yes. Completely possible. Quite usual for pregnancy tests at 8 week check to be positive.
