Hi all
Im a breast feeding mother of a 6mth old baby.
and I was wondering can BF affect the result of a pregnancy test???

thanks

I wouldn't think so. I read that you can still have HCG in your system for a little while after you give birth, but I think 6 months is well clear of that period.

even though I know I jumped the gun a bit (im only a week and a bit OD at the moment) but I just have that feeling like I KNOW I am ... (but Im probably not)
