yeah I would say it is... your more fertile. My step brother and sister are 10mths apart, and my little boy and little girl are 12mth apart so I was 12wk when I got pregnant, so id be tempted to do a test.

I dont know what the risks are of becoming pregnant before that but its def possible as i know at least3 people who bacame pregnant BEFORE there 6 week check!

thank you

mt MW said its posible 3 weeks after giving birth and yes you are more fertile after being pg if you arent BF'ing.

If you are still BF'ing then you are less fertile but it is still possible!

Scary stuff eh?
