Hi,
Thanks for the query.
During breast feeding some amount of fluctuation in the hormonal levels is common.
After stopping the breast feeding also, it will take some time for regularization of the hormonal levels.
As you had unprotected intercourse around the time of ovulation, there is possibility of pregnancy.
Urine pregnancy test kit may not detect early pregnancy sometimes and can give false negative result.

So, you once go for blood test for pregnancy.
If the test comes negative, the possibility of pregnancy is less.
You can consult gynecologist and take tablets for withdrawal bleeding.
If test comes positive, you can continue with regular antenatal checkups.
Take care.
