Anyone TTC while breastfeeding?

[dinosaur2010]

AF is due for me on Monday and yest and today I've felt little tummy flutters that I can only describe as the very first baby movements. It's prob wind tho which makes me think those very first movements in pregnancy could have been wind too! X

Dino: when are you testing? fingers crossed for a bfp xxx

Wow - lots going on here! A few of us hopefully approaching O. I'm on about CD32 now though so its not looking too good! My first PP AF was last month but was very light. It took 19 months before I got any vague signs of fertility eg EWCM and then near positive opk. I dunno about soy iso but I've started taking vit B6. I bought some vitex too but not taken any yet.

I normally do at least one feed in the night and our DD is normally quite late to bed so one of our main problems at the moment is to find the time and energy to BD.

Sorry for lack of personal responses. Am so tired today. Molars coming in. Zzz XX

Wow - just seen the post from dinosaur. Fingers crossed. How exciting! XX

I read a study that said soy iso goes into the breastmilk. I know it can have quite a big effect on your hormones so would be reluctant to use while BFing, but I know people have. There have been no long term studies into the effects of soy when exposed during infancy x

Maisy, I am one of 6 kids, and my mom always had to stop nursing before she could get pregnant again, my sister also never had a period while BF. Mine came back at 6 months, so its varies person to person.
I think I'm 11 dpo right now, and still BFN. A little discouraged, but it took forever to get pregnant with our first so I'm pretty used to the try and fail :/

Pls don't get excited I'm sure it was just wind! AF will get me by Monday!!

With my lack of O so far this month and questionable fertility even a tiny flutter of hope is exciting! X

Thank you. I've decided not to use soy iso. I read a study myself that related soy in an infant to childhood cancer Won't be touching it now. Thank you again x

Thank you! That reassures me, hopefully I'm just one of those women that won't o whilst bfeeding. Good luck this month, 11dpo is still really early for testing x x

Still waiting to O here CD 12 today, so hoping it will be early next week sometime!
Dino: Damn that witch! Sorry but I know what you mean about trying and failing. I was really used to it when we were trying for DD. xxx

 

[BrittasticTX]

Aw, I'm sorry Dino :/

Expected AF tomorrow, but I've been a little erratic so not positive. But still getting lots and lots of BFNs! Feeling pretty defeated, I had my BFP by this time in my cycle with my first. With all of the crazy symptoms this month I was just sure I was pregnant, and now the wait is just killing me! Guess I'll know for sure in a couple of days...

 

[JustMeAndInch]

I'm 3 dpo and i already want to start symptom spotting... anyone else?

 

[Teeny]

dtd, now entering the two! fx x

Hey girlies! I'm back from camping. I didn't O during our camping week, still waiting for a positive opk. I'm leaving tomorrow night for Chicago and getting back late on Tuesday night. It'll be my luck that I'll O while I'm gone without hubby...

Not looking forward to leaving LO for a couple days! I will probably cry half the drive there! lol

 

[Teeny]

I'm sure it will be fine, what are you doing about feeding lo?
