I have a friend whose wife is breasfeeding exclusively and her daughter is already 20 month old and still breastfeeding.

She is pregnant again and is in her 4th month of pregnancy.

Breastfeeding is not for 3rd world country only. We should all breastfeed as long as we want because breast milk is made for human!

u can breastfeed zara till ur last drop of milk but if u r about to get another baby then u should stop breastfeeading. the hormon that stimulate the secretion of milk unfortunately also involve in fertality.. its not that u r infertile, but some sort of natural birth control pills..

however, there are still incidence of mummy that get pregnant while breastfeed… basically.. it’s up to ur hormon..

anyway.. my hug to zara.. cute..

In fact, if you are seriously trying for a second baby, i suggest you ‘cut down’ on bf for a few weeks and chart your temperature or actively ‘try’. Many people who are exclusively breasfeeding could also get pregnant, with/without period. Ovalution has already taken place without me knowing as i had a long cycle this time… and therefore- Bingo!

I already miss my nursing relationship as Tim dry nurses now. I do not have much milk.

Don’t worry la… baby will come when the time is right. Your body works well with Zara’s needs. If she don’t ‘need’ you so much anymore, there will be a window of opportunity for a second baby! πŸ™‚

I don’t believe so. WHO never specified this only apply to super undeveloped country.

Jefferene, Blurblur,
yeah, I heard of people getting pregnant while breastfeeding too.

MSAU,
yeah loh. You are case #1.

Baby smooches,
I don’t understand some of these professionals too.

Sue,
I get regular menstruation too. The Dr said I may get my period, but egg may not release woh. So I really have to do some research to check out what he said.

Miche,
I guess it must be true what you heard. You’ll be eating for 3 and have to be more careful with what you eat.
my email : agnes_leecm@hotmail.com

Annie,
I went to Dr Dato Ang (or is it Dato Dr Ang).

Fannie,
yeah loh. I also believe I’m fertile b’cos of all the signs you mentioned.
Will check the facts first before doing anything.

the LCs here also said best is to bf for 2 years! Erm…i AM fertile even when I bf…:x How I knw? Look at your discharge and body for cues! πŸ™‚

I ever face similiar situation whereby they ask me to stop nursing Ethyl and says “IT’S ENOUGH!!!”

I frown whenever I hear such comments from the so-called professionals.

Agnes, do what u deem best! For me, I will hang on cos I’ addicted to breastfeeding! πŸ™‚
