can you get pregnant if you have a normal cycle but are still breastfeeding?

Alexandra

I’m back to a normal period at this point. My son is almost two years old and currently nursing maybe once a day, more so out of comfort than anything. We are just now trying to conceive our next baby but someone told me that if you’re breastfeeding it makes it harder to get pregnant. I was wondering if there are any success stories from anyone on here about breastfeeding and getting pregnant at the same time or if anyone has any advice? Weening him off is going okay so far. We are down to one feeding every other day. I just didn’t realize that that could affect having another baby!
