Am using the arm implant as a birth control n still breastfeeding i keep stressing out about being pregnant again can i become pregnant ?

Nearly impossible: the contraceptive implant is one of the best contraceptive on the market, almost as good as getting your tubes tied. It would be highly unlikely for you to be pregnant if this was placed after childbirth and if you have been consistently breastfeeding. I would be very surprised, but you can always get a pregnancy test.
