It doesn't always stop completely, but pregnancy hormones can change the milk supply and taste. Please consult your gynac about whether it is safe to continue breastfeeding, especially if you have any history of preterm labor.
When I got pregnant again, I was staying at my mom's place and she gently advised me to slowly wean my toddler. My supply had decreased anyway and having family around made it so much easier to handle the transition. Take care of your diet.
Oh, this is such a tender phase! Yes, your supply might dip and the taste of colostrum might make your older baby self-wean. It can feel so bittersweet to stop, but you are doing an amazing job nurturing both.
Beta, jab doosra bacha pet mein ho toh doodh dhoodhna thoda kam ho jata hai aur swad bhi badal jata hai. Humare yahan bolte hain ki is time bade bachhe ko dhere dhere upar ka doodh aur semi-solid khana shuru kar dena chahiye.
I totally understand how emotional this must be for you, wanting to feed your first baby while growing the second. The supply does drop for many moms because of hormones, but please listen to your body and give yourself a big hug.
No, it doesn't always stop, but the milk supply definitely decreases around the second trimester. Honestly, balancing a job, a toddler, and pregnancy is hard enough, so if you need to transition to formula, don't feel guilty. Do what is practical.
Actually, it doesn't stop immediately, but the volume usually goes down significantly as your body prioritizes the new pregnancy. Some toddlers even stop because the taste changes. It's totally normal, so just go with the flow.
