What are the chances of someone getting pregnant off precum after giving birth 3 weeks ago?

Definitely: There are definitely women who ovulate 3 weeks following the birth of a child, so it's definitely within the realm of possibility. As far as a number or statistic, i don't think anyone would be able to give you an exact number. If you don't want to be pregnant, be sure to use reliable protection every time, before any insertion of penis into vagina.

Chance is low: The clear liquid precum does contain sperm and so you coould become pregnant, however being just had a delivery 3 wks ago the uterus is probably not in tip-top shape to accept a new pregnancy just yet. So your chance is low, but there is still a chance. So, if you don't get your period in a couple of weeks, check a hpt. Congrats on new baby. Stay well. Good luck.

No such statistic: It all depends on if you have started ovulating yet. And that is not something we can guess at or predict. Can a female get pregnant after giving birth. Yes, absolutely.
