...no I"m not pregnant again! (yet lol)

BUT was wondering how does this work? Can you do it? Would you ever get up off the sofa? lol  Seriously, I am wanting to BF Clodagh for as long as poss but if I get pg, then can I continue?

Any voices of experience out there....?

i asked this question a few months ago. I did it until henry self weaned about a week ago now. It was fine, nothing really changed for us. When i had bad morning sickness it got a bit difficult but i just fed him lying down. Interestingly when i was feeding was the only time i didnt feel like vomiting. I was open to tandem feeding if henry still wanted to feed when bubs got here but it doesnt look like that will be happening now.

Good luck

Yip I have! In fact currently doing it for the third time. I also have done tandem breastfeeding twice & will probably be doing it for a third time next year after this baby is born
It is definitely do-able & I actually found it GREAT having a toddler still feeding when Bubs was born, no sore boobs from engorgement! Although its not for everyone

Like the idea of not having to deal with engorgement again! Ouchie

I fed dd till about two weeks ago , it was fine, although I had to considerably increase my water intake to avoid headaches, I was also going to tandem feed but I guess dd had other plans

I did it until Rowan weaned when I was about 18 weeks pregnant. I was planning on tandem feeding too.

Wasn't an issue for us. I'd certainly give it a shot and see how you go.
