ttc after bf
Hey everyone,
I'm still bf my son who's now 11 months. I'm planning to continue until next summer when he's 18 months if he's happy to keep going.
I'm planning to have a couple of months off after that, before we start trying for baby no.2, but wondering about fertility and if it'll take longer than that to go back to normal? I haven't had a period since i conceived my son!

If I was to get pregnant while still bf, can i continue to feed, or would i have to stop?
I've been told that we are still just as fertile while bf'ing than not, it's just very difficult to work out when you are ovulating as you have no guide! We've been talking about starting to try for another one late next year, lo will over a year and at the moment I can see that i'll she'll still be having bf.
Hiya. I have just got pregnant while breastfeeding! Had my first period since giving birth when my son was 9 months. He was still on 4 feeds a day at that point, and that is the cycle I got pregnant from! I have now dropped down to 3 feeds a day. I'm also hoping to carry on until he's at least 1, maybe longer. Am finding his latch a bit uncomfy at the moment though, I can't decide if it's because of my hormones making me more sensitive or if he's being more forceful!
