Hi,
there are two things going to gather,one you might have some infection in the breast as they are tender,of course it may be due to collection of milk also.
There is chance of infection in your genital tract leading to tenderness in lower abdomen and discharge.
pregnancy is less likely as during breast feeding period is not there but it is not 100 pct sure that pregnancy is not possible.
You consult your gynac and seek her advice.
