These pills must be taken at the same time every day - forgetting even one or taking it as little as 3 hours late can allow ovulation to occur.
Plan B - Emergency Contraceptive is another POP - because of the high dose of hormones this should be used as a last resort and never as routine BC - breast feeding or not. But it is seen as safe for mothers and their infants - it should not be used in the first six weeks after birth due to the stress on an infant's immature liver (hormones are broken down in our liver).
Combination pills contain estrogen a hormone that is known to effect the quantity of breast milk (sometimes dramatically) and has an anecdotal effect of shorter duration of breast feeding. These pills should not be used until the baby is six months old and has an established routine that includes solid foods.
You should not do this without first consulting a doctor. Anything you take may come out in the breast milk and may affect your baby. It is possible that while you are regularly breast feeding you may not need contraception - see the related link below.
Any method without estrogen can be used while breastfeeding. These include the progestin-only pill, Mirena or Paragard IUD, Nexplanon, Depo-Provera among the hormonal methods. Among non-hormonal methods, condoms are the method with the highest effectiveness.
There are options for contraception that you can use while nursing. Which ones are appropriate depends on the age of the baby, other food and drink the baby is taking in, and the medication condition of the mother. Some options include progesterone only pills, barrier methods, Mirena, Paragard, Depo Provera, and Implanon. Talk with your health care provider about what might work for you.
yes you can.
you should of course consult it with your doctor, but there are few pills that are completely safe for the breast feeding moms and their babies.

Yes and no. It depends on which pill you are taking.
There are three types of contraceptive pills:
The contraceptives that contain Oestrogen will interfere with the lactation process, making it difficult or impossible to produce milk, while making breastfeeding somewhat sore and painful for the mother.
Progestogen contraceptives are fine to breastfeed on as they will not interfere with lactation.
If you are unsure which pills you are taking, ask your doctor.
Ask your doc about the "Mini" pill. that's what I had first, then I now have the Mirena. It is excellent! It lasts 5 years, and can be removed anytime. That is all I know. Goodluck!
There are many types of medicines that can be taken during breastfeeding that will not affect the baby. However, it is best to contact a doctor before taking any antibiotics.
