do women stop ovulating when they are pregnant?
Question:
Answers:
Yes, women do not ovulate during pregnancy.
This fact actually forms the basis of most oral contraceptives. They release hormones which mimic those present during pregnancy, thus "tricking" the woman's body into "thinking" that it is pregnant, and preventing ovulation.
Other Answers:
yes
yes of course.
Yes.. you don't ever hear of a woman who'd had 'twins' where one was conceived 3 months later right? Very safe to have unprotected sex when you are pregnant :D

Yes,because there is a fetus in the uterus. So the a woman couldn't get her cycle. Women ovulate just to get pregnant.
Yes. When the fertilized egg implants in the uterine wall, it triggers the woman not to ovulate. If a woman did ovulate during pregnancy, the growing baby would keep the second egg from implanting or being fertilized because the growing baby stretches the uterine wall.
