Anyone got pregnant while breastfeeding?

[igal_76]

Hi mummies!
I am still bfing my son who's turning 1 soon. My menses came only in May this year and the next was in July. Wondering if it's difficult to conceive if I continue to bf my son?

Thanks!

Since your menses have returned, you should find it easy to conceive. There are breastfeeding mums who conceived even before menses returned.

You may use ovulation test kit to check for ovulation dates.

Yup, no issues at all. There are a few mummies on this forum who are pregnant and still breastfeeding.

If pregnant during breastfeeding, should we still continue or wean off?

if ur pregnancy is a healthy one, there is no need to stop breastfeeding.. many moms continued breastfeeding throughout their pregnancy n even after baby is born..

I see. However, my colleague told me it is better not to, so that the next baby can enjoy the colostrum.
