6 weeks postpartum intercourse
I had sex 6 weeks postpartum. I'm not on birth control yet so we used a condom but it didn't break. I'm so paranoid, can I still be pregnant?

Maybe give some free advice about: Condoms?
Statistically condoms are 85% effective in preventing pregnancy. Understanding that if your breastfeeding you cannot be on birth control medication. There are other forms of birth control that are more effective than condoms alone such as an IUD or cervical cap. You should talk to your GYN concerning other forms of birth control. These other forms along with condoms are almost 100% effective.
One other thing you can do to avoid getting pregnant is to continue to use condoms but refrain from having intercourse during the 7th to 21st day of your menstrual cycle. This is the time when most women ovulate and are most fertile.
