yes but most doctors won't recommend a birth control pill while you are breastfeeding. My doctor suggests an IUD that can be removed at any point for birth control while breastfeeding.
The mini-pill is only 87-99% effective - less than the regular pill. If you're trying to breastfeed, wait six weeks after birth to establish, as hormones can decrease production.
