A member asked:

Have 1 yr old, continue to breastfeed. producing 2 oz/day at this point. had reg periods for 6 mos. want to get pregnant. will bf prevent ovulation?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You can get pregnant: If your periods are regular then you are ovulating and can get pregnant. Make sure you are taking your prenatal vitamins already and consider weaning your 1 year old. It is very stressful on your body to be pregnant and breast feeding at the same time.
