Hi,
You delivered in February, got first period in May 7th, had sex on May 9th (pregnancy is possible only after ovulation which is around 14th day of cycle). Ovulation is not possible on 2-3rd menses day Pregnancy test gets positive after 8 days delay in periods (so time of testing was not proper&result is likely to be faulty).
After delivery, while lactating, periods tend to be irregular or absent and during this phase ovulation is hampered due to lactation. So there is natural avoidance of pregnancy during lactation. Considering all these, you are unlikely to be pregnant at the time. To clear the doubt, wait till 8 days delay in periods and go for home pregnancy testing.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
