Can you get pregnant again this soon?

I just had a baby 3 weeks ago. On a drunken mistake, i slept with my ex (and father of my kids) two days ago. I am pretty sure, unfortunately, he came in me, is it possible to get pregnant again so soon? My period is ending, so i believe it is possible. Anyone know?

Answer:
Yes you can!

It is the prolactin that you make to produce milk that supresses your steroid hormones, stopping ovulation. Prolactin is always high in the 1st week preventing possible pregnancy then. As you breastfeed though, you need less prolactin to make the same milk and the level drops so that there is no birth control effect.

In some women, it takes a week for the prolactin levels to drop. In others, it can take three months. So yes there is a chance you may be pregnant, or you could be one of those women who take up to 3 months to get pregnant again.

I hope this helps and it all works out for you!
yes ovulation has started again..good luck
Yes you can get pregnant again that quick. My best friend got pregnant a month after giving birth to her daughter. Good luck.
You have a 3 week old and are getting drunk? Lord help the fools.

anyway... it IS possible yes. A friend of mine from high school have kids 9 months apart, as does one of the girls in my mommy group.

Next time, please try and use precautions.
Well my best friend IS indeed pregnant and she just gave birth only a month ago.
There is a chance you can get pregnant but the chances are really small now.
yes you can get pregnant again ,it only takes once.
yes you can get pregnant again. good luck with it
i REALLY hope your not getting drunk and breastfeeding your child. You do know that whatever you eat/drink goes into your breastmilk and therefore into your baby.

And yes.. you can get pregnant.
Well, I know of many women who have gone back to their 6 week follow up appointment and been pregnant. Some people say breastfeeding is birth control, but half the women I knew WERE breastfeeding, so I don't think it is reliable. Part of the reason why doctors don't want you to have sex for six weeks isn't just so your body has time to heal...it's also because you are fertile after you give birth. Hopefully you weren't ovulating, but unfortunately it is possible.
Yes. Yes. Yes.

Sorry to hear about your problem...
Looks like Irish twins for you
yes you can. I don't want to lower your self-esteem or anything, but that was pretty careless on your part.
You can absolutely get pregnant again that quickly. I had a friend that was 3 weeks pregnant when she went back for her 6 week check up. Her doc was FURIOUS lol. I do have a concern about your being drunk enough to do that with a 3 week old baby to think about. Please do some thinking about your choices. Everything you do is a choice. Choose to be better to yourself.
