hi there,
am dr.surendran
nice to meet you here in HCMagic
AS you are breast feeding your baby,it works as an natural barrier against pregnancy,as your husband ,using protection decreases the risk to minimum of getting pregnant again.
if you are worried about getting pregnanat just do an HCG card test,it shows your status of pregnancy
some signs of pregnancy
1 . Food cravings

2. Darkening of your areolas

3. Implantation bleeding or cramping

4. Frequent urination

5. Fatigue

6. Tender, swollen breasts

7. Altered sense of taste

8. Morning sickness

9. A missed period

10. A positive home pregnancy test

do not stress yourself ,check your status and proceed as per the results

hope helped your query

regards dr.surendiran hcmagic
