" Can I get pregnant after giving birth ?" - a question not uncommon and exciting all mummies. The view that a woman can not become pregnant while breastfeeding is very erroneous. This method of natural contraception is able to influence the absence of signs of pregnancy with GV only during the first half of the year and with the continuous application of the baby to the mother's breast.
From the physiological point of view, the ideal time for the onset of subsequent fertilization is the end of lactation in two or three months. In this case, the signs of pregnancy during feeding will have a clear character and will not affect the process of feeding the baby.
Signs of pregnancy with lactation
Most women note the presence of such symptoms of repeated insemination as:
- changes in the quality of milk, which will certainly affect the behavior of the child and his stool;
- decrease in the amount of milk, because the body directs all forces to support a new life;
- one of the brightest signs of pregnancy during feeding can be soreness and engorgement of the mammary glands and nipples that can force a woman to stop breastfeeding;
- the delay in the cycle of menstruation, which took place during the feeding of the child.
Sometimes signs of pregnancy with breastfeeding can be typical manifestations of toxicosis, lethargy, fatigue, irritability, frequent "small" or nausea in the morning.
An ideal interval between the gestation of children is an interval of 2 or 3 years. During this time you can feed the baby, restore strength for a new pregnancy and rest a little morally.
Do not ignore the signs of pregnancy during lactation and delay with a visit to the gynecologist. Perhaps this is an undesirable phenomenon and requires an abortion, especially if there was a dangerous caesarean section in this case. In any case, signs of pregnancy during lactation are not the reason for a sharp tearing of the baby from the breast. It is only necessary to revise the nutrition plan, take vitamins and consult a gynecologist and a breastfeeding consultant.
