Yep, my 2 oldest are 9months 10days apart.

First of all, ewwww. Don’t have sex until 8 weeks after you give birth. You just let your husband sick is bacteria stick in your open wound. Secondly, you are most fertile up to six months after having a baby so chances are you are pregnant and will probably get an infection.

Did she just say 3 WEEKS postpartum??? :grimacing: I’m cringing and disgusted about how dumb some grown women can be. Not to be rude but your doctor tells you 6 weeks for a reason

My kids will be about a year apart… my daughter is due on my sons first birthday

Why in the hell would you do that?:scream::scream::scream: I get a Depo shot before I leave the hospital just cuz! And I never have sex before the 6 weeks. Then I get my Mirena inserted at the 6wk check up! Ain’t no sex that good that I’m willing to risk having 2 kids in diapers at the same time.

Of course you can. Girl you got to give your body proper time to heal. Thats why they tell you to wait 6 weeks to have sex post baby.

My sister had her kids 10 months apart. I think they call it Irish twins.

Of course there is a chance you can be pregnant. There is always a chance when you are having sex. It does not matter if you have birth control or use protection.
You would not be the first or the last to get pregnant soon after birth.

Yes it 100% can happen and you’re actually more fertile right after having a baby

I’m gonna go ahead and be rude.
This is ridiculously dumb. Not only are you not fully healed but the chances of your uterus being healed enough to grow another baby is slim. I got pregnant 3 months after my daughter was born and had a miscarriage because my body wasn’t ready.

I got pregnant just afterwards as well, I had major symptoms and the main one was peeing all day everyday. Took a test and it was extremely faint, went to the hospital for a blood test and they said it’s very hard to tell but yes you’re pregnant(I was four weeks along)

Yes. My daughter’s girls are 10 months apart

My Irish twins can confirm you are def. capable and fertile :joy:

I got pregnant about 8-9 weeks PP. My kids are exactly 11 months apart (8/8/17 & 7/8/18)

They should definitely test you before you go on bc.

:flushed::flushed::flushed: the comment section should have 2 parts lol one where all the wonderful, kind, and helpful women post to encourage, uplift, and ease other women’s suffering, mistakes, and venting. I applaud those wonderful creatures. And the other section is for the swamp witches. The ones who say ewww, leave their judgy comments and claim I only say it because I care, and are just plain here to point out error like they get a prize.

Ohhhh no… :face_with_hand_over_mouth::pensive: After having a baby, a woman is VERY fertile. The cervix is open and I’m hopeful your OBGYN discussed all these possibilities with you. (My 1st OB did not- they were terrible overall though. My 2nd OB did).

It’s like an open wound. Your body needs that time to heal. Nothing should be put up there before you see your OB at your 6 week follow up, and possibly longer at the doctor’s discretion. Infections are more likely to happen. I hope all is okay.

Also, I’m speaking from experience. My (now) 3 & 4 year olds were born Nov 2016 & 2017. My 2nd was the hardest pregnancy. I was trying to heal, be a good mama to my newborn, then adding pregnancy hormones, fatigue and all the things- it was just super difficult for me.

Then when they were born & even now, it’s like having twins. I could go on. Wishing you the best!

I was always told precum is the most fertile cum… you really shouldn’t be having sex until 6-8 weeks after giving birth… until after your OB gives the okay that everything is back to normal size

Is the question, can you get pregnant from precum? Because that is and answer in itself, if the question is can you get pregnant after having had baby so soon, well there are plenty of children born within 12 months of each other soooo…

My sister had them 10 months apart. Mine are almost 2 years apart and too close. I had symptoms of pregnancy post partum even after I got my iud in so I think its just our bodies trying to get back to normal.

My sister and I are the same age for a week. I would’ve had a baby about 10 months after my youngest was born but I lost him or her early in the pregnancy.

My sons are 11 months apart, you are most fertile after giving birth. Good luck, 2 under 2 is quite a challenge!

For one… No glove, No love. Especially after just having a baby. I understand your married. I am also. But your body needs time to heal after having the first one. And second you can get pregnant with any kind a semen. Obviously you dont necessarily want a second baby this soon, especially after asking that question. So make your husband wear a condom till your BC is good.

lol just stop. Both of y’all are trying to have another one already and you know it. Which is cool if you actually want to. It’s your husband not some random man. But let’s not sit here and play like you’re still in middle school and don’t know any better :joy:

You most definitely can get/be pregnant! If you don’t want another right now (if your not already pregnant) I’d suggest you stop until you are on bc or use protection!

Your most highly fertile right after the birth of a child and it’s all still wide open and slowing shrinking in that 6 week period. That’s why they say don’t do it till 6 weeks after, it’s in every ones discharge paperwork from any postpartum unit.

Mine are 12 months and 11 days apart. Kids under a year apart are called Irish twins and its very common because you are soooo fertile right after giving birth

Yes my middles(boy/girl) are 8 weeks apart. They are both 7 right now( only for another month) but they are like twins. They are best friends and have such a connection. Pregnancy was rough being so close but worth it.

My kids are 13 months apart

LOL. My OBGYN said I’d have a hard time getting pregnant so I went off the pill & my Hubby and I did pull out & I got pregnant like 4 weeks later :joy::joy::joy: IF U DON’T WANT A BABY DON’T PRACTICE THE PULL OUT METHOD. !!! Jeez lady just go on the pill lol.

Of course you can. That’s why they will make you take a pregnancy test before getting your IUD inserted at 7/8 weeks ppd

You’re not even supposed to have sex for at least 6 weeks! There is an open wound in your body that needs to heal. Regardless if you feel ok or not. Lots of people get pregnant that soon and it’s very possible. Pull out method is not effective. You could still be pregnant. Make sure they retest you before you get your iud.

My kids are 10 months and 11 days apart. It can happen VERY easily

I’m no doctor but I’m pretty sure you’re not supposed to have sex until the 6 week mark, minimum lol and if the pull out method wasn’t effective the first time, why would you try it again?
