A member asked:
Can i get pregnant 6 weeks postpartum if i did not get a period but stopped bleeding 4 weeks after giving birth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes, definitely. You are going to release an egg from your ovary typically before you have a 'normal' menstrual cycle, so it's definitely possible to become pregnant after giving birth even without getting a period. I've had patients that have gotten pregnant just 2 weeks following delivery.
