A member asked:
I have two month old twins and i am breastfeeding them. i am on birth control pills. will the birth control pills affect the fertility of my babies in the long run? (when they are older) will it have any negative effect on them?

No: Birth control pills taken by a breastfeeding mother do not directly affect the babies she is breastfeeding, except that it prevents the babies from having... new siblings showing up in the home next year. Enjoy the twins. They grow up really fast!
