Well, this method of birth control is not foolproof. My daughter was
"pumping" for her second son who was very sick, and the doctor had her on a
birth control pill also and she managed to get pregnant at 6 weeks anyway.
My second grandson was born April 18th, 1999 (very sick and died at 8 weeks,
never left ICU) and my third grandson was born full term on March 3, 2000.
Just wanted to make this clear so that noone depended on breastfeeding as a
type of birth control.
Hugs, Michele
