Hiya everyone,
Right Ihave just found out the past week I am pregnant. Though I have seem to be having issues with milk for about 6 or so weeks now. I am worried as my son is only 9 months old. I did think my milk woul ddry up just because I was pregnant. How do I know for sure and what to do?
 
If you have been exclusively breastfeeding for over 6 months (barring solids) then it's very, very unlikely that you rmilk supply would suddenly reduce or you'd get supply problems.

Pregnancy can affect supply, but it usually doesn't happen until the second trimester.

What makes you think you have supply problems?

Congrats on your pregnancy by the way! :flower:
 
Because my little one latches on then pulls off and screams. I switch sides and the same. I am thinking it also might be that he is overly tired at times and just unhappy. Yeah, I have exclusively breastfed and he is 9 months and still going strong lol. I think i am just panicing over things. thanks
 
What you describe could be teething, thrush or any number of things really. I always find it helpful to assume that I had plenty of milk there, so what could the problem be and work from that. :flower:
