Can breastfeeding mothers use NFP?
Yes. During breastfeeding a woman may experience a time of natural infertility. This time, however, is variable for every woman and for every pregnancy. This time of infertility depends upon the inter-relationship of many factors including the baby and mother’s needs, and the style and frequency of feeding. The Office of Marriage & Family offers special classes for breastfeeding mothers to help them learn how to use NFP and chart while breastfeeding.
