Anyone else?!

Question

Ttc #2 here, however I'm still breastfeeding number 1! He will be a year in October and I was wondering if there are any other mothers who breastfeed and still get crampy?

I have a regular cycle, and ovulation seems to be coming when it should maybe a little early.

So if there is anyone else could you help me shed some light on why I'm crampy?

Thank you ahead of time!

Answer

Yes ! I am still breastfeeding my son who will also be a year mid October. We have been trying for #2 for a couple months. I've been ovulating the same time every month since I've started weening but no cycle yet. It's odd. I get cramps around ovulation time - whether it's just a hormonal surge or an egg really drops I don't know. But I also get cramps a couple days before i would get my cycle. Some women can still breastfeed and get pregnant but I might be one of the few that has to completely stop. He's self weened and I only put him on so I don't get clogged ducts he's over breastfeeding these days :)

I just started acupuncture to help get my fertility back in check. She's hopeful !!
