Breastfeeding and being pregnant?

Question

Is anyone currently pregnant and breastfeeding? 
I'm still breastfeeding my 17 month old son and we have no plans to stop anytime soon. My husband and I just started trying for baby #2. It seems like a lot on my body to still breastfeed and be pregnant if I end up pregnant quickly. 
What is your experience if you are both? :)

Answer

I'm 31 weeks pregnant and nursing my three and a half year old. I don't mind it. I have rough pregnancies so in general it's a lot on my body. I don't think it's any worse this go around because of breastfeeding. The only issue is how sensitive my nipples are so we just have shorter nursing sessions and a lot les frequently than what she'd prefer.

Thank you!!! I'm loving it. I never thought I would nurse my baby this long and here we are! He doesn't nurse very much right now. Just when he is ready to go to sleep and maybe two times at night. It's a comfort for him. I am concerned about drying up when I get pregnant. It won't be the end of the world if I do though. So excited to nurse another baby. ❤️

My first son was 7 months old when I got pregnant with #2. I breastfeed till he was 9 months old then he got to 14 months old off my stash. 
My now baby 2 is 10 months old. I'm 5 weeks pregnant and still breastfeeding. Have no plans of stopping. 
Honestly unless your OB tells you to stop then there is no harm it keeping it up. 
Most women stop bc their milk supply drops so much. I went from producing 6 oz each breast every 4 hours to getting maybe 1-2 oz each breast every 6 hours. Thank god I had a huge over supply issue and have over 3k oz stored haha. 
Keep up the good work momma!
