I'm in the postpartum period for the 3rd week, I'm bleeding a little brown and I'm pumping milk with a breast pump. Could I get pregnant without full intercourse? I caressed myself with my partner. If I take a pregnancy test, will the result be correct?

If you have not ejaculated in the vagina, there is no possibility of pregnancy.
In the future, you should be aware that the fact that you are breastfeeding or not breastfeeding, but you express milk, does not protect you from getting pregnant (if there is intercourse in the vagina).
Low levels of beta HCG can persist for several weeks after delivery, so urine pregnancy test results may come out false positive.
In the current situation, however, there is no need to perform a pregnancy control test, as there was no risk of conception.
If you decide to take a pregnancy test in the next 2-3 weeks (if unprotected intercourse takes place during this time), it is worth opting for a blood beta HCG test, urine tests may not be reliable yet.
