Expert answer:
Yes. É possible to get pregnant during the breast-feeding.
Breastfeeding can work as a contraceptive method only if the woman is exclusively breastfeeding (ie not offering another type of milk for the baby) in the first six months and has not yet had any menstrual periods after giving birth.
If these three situations do not happen together, the woman has a chance of getting pregnant even if she is breastfeeding.
If the woman does not want a new pregnancy, she should talk with her / his doctor during pregnancy or soon after delivery to guide contraceptive methods that can be used during breastfeeding.
