Need Help Please
Posted: 11-21-06 12:21pm

I have a 4 and a half month old baby and I am not on any type of bc. Dh and I had sex on the 15th and again on the 18th of this month. Both days I had ewcm and I was wondering if you all knew if people are more fertile after giving birth and if so do you know why and for how long? It took me 2 years of trying to get pregnant with my little girl so I don't see how it could happen so quickly if it took me that long last time unless I was more fertile. I don't know if I am preggo yet but I am on blood pressure meds that may not be safe during pregnancy and I have already talked to my ob about that so the main thing I wanted to know is about the fertile thing...


Thanks...

The sticky at the top tells you when you are most likely to be fertile.

"read this first...Information about pregnancy" is what it's called. Wink

Okay I know all about when I am fertile. I have kept track of all of that for 2 years. I was wondering if you are more fertile after giving birth and if so why and how long. That sticky did not address my question at all. I am going to test but I wanted to know the facts so I could decide on what to do about some things.

The facts are it varies woman to woman.
It isn't possible to know when you ovulate unless you personally keep a dedicated chart, and use ov tests.

Some women do indeed ovulate right after giving birth or miscarriage and fall pregnant right away, others like a good friend of mine use no b/c and still hasn't ovulated yet from giving birth 14/15 months ago.

the simple answer is that there is no simple answer to that. some</> women are more fertile. Others aren't.

These are the facts, if you do not wish to become pregnant, use birth control. Even if it took you and your husband 2 years to get pregnant the first time, that doesn't mean it will take that long the second time.

Good luck.

And yes most women are much more fertile after giving birth just not sure for how long.
