Pregnant again and still nursing / pumping?

Question

Any March 2020 mamas pregnant again and still nursing/pumping? How is that going? I recently found out I’m pregnant and would like to continue nursing/pumping for my 10 month old until he turns one. Thanks!

Answer

Me 🙋🏼‍♀️ I’m 13weeks due in august. Still nursing but I want to wean so bad- it’s really starting to hurt and I know my supply is tanking. I won’t fully wean until 1 but this last month I am trying to start weaning him more.

Answer

Just found out I’m pregnant too! My supply is dipping, but I also think that’s because my son is starting to wean himself and doesn’t want to feed as much. Not sure which is making my supply dip, but I’m hoping my freezer stash will help supplement for the next couple months till I fully wean him.

Answer

Following! I had my baby April 1, so I follow the March and April boards 😌 just got a positive test over the weekend but noticed my pumping output tanking last week. I went from pumping 15 oz a day to like 8-10. Not sure what to do!

Answer

I found out I was pregnant with baby #2 on January 12,2020 but miscarried yesterday. It turned out that my pregnancy wasn't developing properly. The thing is, I was still breastfeeding my 11 month daughter and my family kept insisting that I should wean her or it'll effect the pregnancy but I didn't, and when I miscarried they blamed me for not listening. I still don't believe that breastfeeding caused me to miscarry because there's literally 20 other reasonable and common causes that can lead to pregnancy loss. I accepted the loss because it ended very early however them (my family) pointing fingers at me makes me feel guilty..

Answer

I found out I was pregnant when my baby was 8 months old and he’s 10 months this week. I definitely noticed a supply dip so I started supplementing for the first time with formula (similac pro advance). I felt a lot of guilt but in the end it gave me such piece of mind to give him a big bottle before bed and I save my night pumps for the next day. I was sick in the beginning so I was drinking less water and got off my pump/breastfeeding routine which also decreased my supply. Now he’s at about half formula and half breast milk and I’m very okay with it! Make sure to keep drinking a lot of water and eating even more than before. I was sore a lot in the first trimester but it’s okay now. I only nurse in the morning and pump about 4-5 other times the rest of the day because I only make 3 ounces total. I figure anything I pump helps him and I try not to focus on the output, just that I’m still giving him breast milk.
