New and Need Advice

[aidensxmomma]

Hey everyone, I just came across this site recently and decided to join. First I'll explain my story and then why I need advice

My Story:
Right now I'm 16 years old, but I'll be turning 17 soon. Me and my 18 year old boyfriend have a one month old son who was born on April 12. We couldn't be happier about our baby boy and we spend half our time at my mom's house and half at my boyfriend's parents house. We plan on getting married eventually, but we're not rushing anything.

My Problem:
So like I said, my son is a month old. After he was born, I was feeling great, due to having an easy delivery. We started having sex again shortly afterwards. Well now, I think I might be pregnant again. I could use any advice or support I can find. I thought I had finally gotten my period, but it only lasted a day. I had already healed from the delivery, so I'm not sure what it was...i could really use some help please!

Sounds scarry hun but i know after i had my daughter when i first started having sex i was a mess because my period took nearly 3 months to go back to normal so i would be bleeding one day and not the next. Maybe go and buy a pregnancy test just to be safe.

I guess your cycles can be a bit messed up after your delivery.It hasn't been that long.
But just to put your mind at ease,take a test...

Good luck and congratulations on your little boy!

I thought it took 6 weeks for the bleeding to stop after having a baby? Well you could very well be pregnant, seeing as when you get pregnant your body holds all the rest of the eggs and then spits them all out right after the baby's born, you're VERY fertile so you have to be very very careful next time okay?

Never heard about eggs all being spat out!Take a test to put your mind at rest then see gp about some contraception. Congratulations on your son.

You're normally not recommended to have sex for 6 weeks after baby is born, or at least til after your post partum check. Also, the doctor should have discussed contraception with you. Are you breast or bottle feeding?

It is possible in theory to fall pregnant straight after having a baby, however I don't think it's that common. Plus, you would still be bleeding for at least 2 weeks after your son was born, so the blood and lochia would probably wash the semen back out as quick as it went in....

As the others have said, the only way you'll know, is by testing, but I would have thought it would be too early to get a result now. If you're not trying for another baby, then I would suggest going to the docs for a blood pregnancy test, and lay off the sex until you have decided on some form of contraception.
