I am 4 weeks after childbirth, I express milk with a breast pump. I caressed my boyfriend, I had loose shorts, underwear and a sanitary pad, but it could move slightly. My partner touched me with his naked penis in the vagina area. There was no full intercourse and no sperm, only discharge. Can I get pregnant?

In the described situation, the risk of pregnancy is practically zero. For fertilization to occur, sperm must be in direct contact with the vagina, and the pre-ejaculatory secretion contains only minimal amounts of sperm and is unlikely to penetrate layers of clothing such as underwear, shorts and sanitary pads.
In addition, 4 weeks after giving birth, if you express milk regularly, there is also a protective mechanism called lactation anovulation that reduces the risk of pregnancy (although it is not completely reliable). In the presented scenario, there is no reason to worry about pregnancy.
