I have just read an article in an Argentine digital newspaper that shows how far misinformation can go with regard to breastfeeding.
He points out that many women stop breastfeeding their babies for fear of getting pregnant again.
Also because of the lack of information there are other women who believe that while breastfeeding it is impossible to get pregnant, but we have already talked on the blog that this is not true.
Yes you can get pregnant while breastfeeding, so it is recommended to use some method of contraception to avoid it.
In turn and returning to the news, specialists indicate that the most frequent cause of abandonment of breastfeeding is the return to work and the second, the fear of a new pregnancy.
Since most women do not have menstruation while they are breastfeeding, it is almost impossible to know what their fertile days are when they are most exposed to an unwanted pregnancy.
What many mothers do not know is that there are absolutely effective contraceptive methods for the stage of breastfeeding, there are contraceptive pills that do not change the quantity or quality of milk, apart from the always a preservative aid in addition to others.
It is best that you consult with your gynecologist what is the most appropriate method for you.
If you are determined to breastfeed your baby there is nothing that can stop you, neither for work reasons nor for fear of a new pregnancy.
