What Are The Chances Of Getting Pregnant After Having Sex Postpartum?

I am 8 weeks 4 days postpartum. I started having sex again at 4 weeks postpartum. I haven't gotten my menstrual cycle back yet and am not breastfeeding. I know the time to get your period back varies for different women but I was wondering what the chances are of me actually being pregnant again this early and when would be an appropriate time to take a test.

Hi, I think if you are not breastfeeding, then you can get pregnant early also. So, you can do a urine pregnancy test after 2 weeks of unprotected contact.
