Thing is I've only been expressing the first 2 weeks , we're only getting to breastfeed now.. I read the body doesn't see pumping like breastfeeding and I've been too exhausted to pump every 4 hours at night so .. I think my hormones are not like they usually are when I breastfeed. I think it's almost treating my body like I don't still have my baby.. it's weird I've not felt this way after birth. It's definitely got to be hormonal. I almost feel like my body is trying to gear back up into cycles etc. And this need to be pregnant again. It's driving me abit insane as I feel I've no control over it. I try to reason which my body by repeating over I just had a baby but the hormones aren't registering.. anyway I'll have to be the voice of reason to my own body. I've told hubby not to come near me unless he wants to accidentally make baby 6 .Looking great @tdog!
That’s pretty funny @RedRose19! Haha I felt the same when my second was 2 months old, but I knew the breastfeeding really suppresses my fertility so it wasn't very likely no matter how we tried. Lol
My temp dropped again so now i think af may be coming.
I am so sorry for the bfns, it’s totally disheartening and can get truly depressing. I am praying for everyone on this thread. @tdog wow wow wow those are the kind of bfps women print out for their vision boards!! Praying we all get those!
Wow @tdog congrats!! Popping by on my monthly drop in that's the kinda tests I like to seethat's a funky test what brand is that?! I had some with 4 diff lines on but that's even bigger!! Is it just one giant dipstick insude or separate strips?!
What are these yellow tests I'm seeing you all use I don't recognise them!
Darn those tests have made me a little broody lol
Thank you so much for encouraging!! Yes, im still breastfeeding. Dh and i talked about it and I will try to lessen the frequency of her nursing. Not just in hopes of conceiving, but dd tanks my blood sugar!! I have such a hard time keeping up with her demands and she’s now 17 months so she shouldnt be as frequent as she has been lately. Today, for instance, she nursed 5 times before 11am. And I dont mean a quick ‘hi mom’ check-in and then she’s off again. Full-on ripping the milk from me with tornado-like suction! Teething her last teeth but even so that’s too much for my sanity, health, and ability to get everything else done!@HalfricanMa I'm so sorry. The past 7 months must have felt so long. Are you still breastfeeding?? I'm very confident that you'll get your 3rd baby soon enough!!! Sometimes our bodies just take longer.
