First you should take a home pregnancy test to exclude pregnancy. If the test is positive, it would seem that you are pregnant. If the test is negative, you are most likely not pregnant. 80% of all women lack ovulation and their menstrual periods a few months after delivery. The genital discharge you notice, however, could be a sign of genital infection. You can consult a gynecologist for diagnosis and treatment of possible infection.
