Those who do will usually lose or have a big drop in their supply. But some lucky women can keep going all the way through if they want. I think that's awesome, and if I manage to get pregnant while still breastfeeding, I'll do it as long as I can manage! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-355968 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 11:44:48 +0000 shopaholic 355968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting! Thanks for all the replies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352785 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 15:31:55 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 352785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I nursed for the first trimester, then she self weaned at 17 months old. I was down to only one feed a day by that point, so I didn't notice a supply issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352709 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 14:27:49 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 352709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm doing it right now- LO is 16 months and I am 5 months pregnant. The last few weeks my supply tanked though and LO is really not getting much at all. BF is really important to me, so going forward I would definitely try to not get pregnant before LO is a year old so that he could be EBF until 1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352679 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 13:43:15 +0000 autumnlove 352679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My supply dropped drastically before I was 2 months pregnant....I went from pumping 8-12 ounces in the morning to barely 0.5 ounces! My OB also told me to wean at my first prenatal appointment because of my GD and diminished supply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352677 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 13:42:51 +0000 chopsuey 352677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did for about 3 months before I dried up. :( got pregnant a few days after Lo turned 1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352665 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 13:24:57 +0000 MamaBehr 352665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a close friend who got pregnant while she was breastfeeding and she had to stop because she just couldn't eat enough calories and her supply got really low. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352633 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 12:59:02 +0000 Mrs. Pen 352633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have known some but there were people here on hb whose supply dried up even though they tried. @Chopsuey119 just went through that </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352629 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 12:57:06 +0000 Boogs 352629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup you can, I know someone who just did that. The pregnancy significantly reduced her supply, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-while-pregnant#post-352615 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 12:49:37 +0000 shopaholic 352615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had this totally random thought yesterday about whether or not you can breast-feed while you're pregnant?<br /> i.e. Tori Spelling - who got pregnant with #4 four weeks after baby #3, while BF and "Irish Twins".<br /> * Not that I ever want to be in that situation, but there are plenty of people who are born within a year of their siblings, so I just wondered how that works? </p>
