Anyone breastfeeding whilst pregnant?

I thought my milk would dry up but there is still plenty there. Youngest is two next month and feeds morning, nap and bedtime and a few times in the night.

I have no land to wean but wondering if anyone had any experience please

Hi! My daughter is two also and I'm currently 37 weeks pregnant. She nurses twice a day! Your milk can change in taste and supply can dip at times but we haven't has any issues with nursing and pregnancy as long as your obgyn is okay with you nursing enjoy the bond!

Thank you! apart from tender nips I haven't had any issues so far so here's hoping it lasts!

I weaned my LO at two years 2.5 months, when i was 14 weeks pregnant. My supply dried up completely and he started biting me, he had no interest in dry nursing.

With my last pregnancy my milk dried up completely around 30 weeks pregnant when my youngest was about 20 months. I remember crying as I wanted to let him self wean and planned to continue feeding throughout my pregnancy. The only good thing was that he started sleeping through the night which during late pregnancy I was very grateful for. We offered him a feed when my youngest was born but he didn't want it until last week when he fed at the same time as his sister and has been feeding 2/3 times a day since. So here I am now tandem feeding and happy to let either children wean when they are ready. Congratulations on your pregnancy. I know mums who have continued to feed throughout their pregnancy with no supply issues but that was not the case for me even though I ate a nutrition diet, rested, drank plenty and took my supplements.

My two oldest are 18 months apart, and I nursed the oldest through my entire pregnancy. It did not ever seem like my milk dried up. I had planned to nurse both after the youngest was born, but instead I decided that it was time for the older one to quit cold turkey, which actually ended up working pretty well. I know lots of people tandem nurse, but it was more than I could deal with at the time.
