    If you followed up with the second dose 12 hours later, you're probably fine. Taking plan b can cause problems postpartum or not.

    I'm not sure if you are supposed to take it if you are breastfeeding, as I have read a lot of contraceptive pills are not prescribed until baby had been weaned onto solids. If you aren't breastfeeding, I guess nothing to worry about.

    You are very very fertile in the months after giving birth, next time I'd get him to wear a condom :)

    I would not worry, you have not started ovulation yet.

    start to worry when you start your period! It will take a while for your body to get back on track, and you start your period and ovulation.

    Talk to the Dr, they can get you a low contraceptive that is safe for you and the baby.

    good luck:)

    postpartum could be dangerous if you get easily depressed.when you were in the hospital they didn't give you any birth control before you were released? and your chances of being pregnant are high.

    Yes, but you have to take it within 72 hours of sex.
