Although : breastfeeding is somewhat protective against becoming pregnant - there is still possibility of becoming pregnant. Would continue to use some form of protection to ^ odds further in you favor. Take care.

Less likely: Although being 4 weeks post partum and breast feeding it is unlikely you are pregnant but it is not 100% birth control. Please check a home pregnancy test if there is any doubt.
