How soon after childbirth can a woman conceive again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very soon: A woman who is not breastfeeding may ovulate as soon as 3-4 weeks after delivery. A woman who is breastfeeding, depending on how often she is nursing, may experience a longer delay in return to fertility.
