Ovulation After Pregnancy?
Posted: 02-19-07 12:30pm

I was wondering if anyone knows how soon you can ovulate after giving birth? Can you ovulate before your period starts again and when do you normally get your period if you arent breastfeeding? Can anyone help me with those questions? Im a first time mom who is still learning the ropes so to say. Thanks!!!

im pretty sure u can ovulate before yer period, according to my dr friday at my postpartum checkup they do a vaginal ultrasound and she said it looked like i was either about to ovulate or i was pregnant , the test was negative so most likely ovulation. i think u can ovulate pretty soon after giving birth, just depends, there are lots that got pregnatn right after giving birth.

you have to ovulate before you get your period thats just how it works, ovulation is what causes you period

as for the other questions, you can get pregnant as soon as a few weeks after...that doesnt mean you will but some times some people can, everyone is different

breastfeeding tends to stop ovulation for a while but you can still ovulate as early as someone who isnt breastfeeding...like i said before everyone is different
