General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
it seems that due to breast feeding there might be having absence of period.
Having sex during this period is not safe as any time there might be having ovulation and there is risk of pregnancy.
Go for urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy.
Ok and take care.
